Human trafficking exists in every corner of the world, in countries that are oceans away and in your city's neighborhoods. That’s why it will take all of us standing together in the face of this grave injustice to bring traffickers to justice. This year, Dressember is primarily partnering with International Justice Mission (IJM) to resource programs that prioritize addressing human trafficking systemically. Together, we can make a meaningful impact in advocacy, prevention, intervention, and survivor empowerment initiatives. Give to the Dressember 2023 campaign today.
