Interfaith Human Trafficking Toolkit 2016

A resource for churches on human trafficking with a focus on children, compiled by an interfaith working group.


The toolkit contains basic information about trafficking, as well as specific information regarding its impact on children. Children were chosen as a focus of this year’s efforts because all faith traditions value and encourage the protection of the vulnerable, particularly children, and because, due to their vulnerability, children are at heightened risk of trafficking. During Human Trafficking Awareness month in January 2016, communities are encouraged to focus on the impact of trafficking on children. The toolkit also contains faith based resources for several faith traditions, including prayers, scriptures, statements, fact sheets and resolutions. Finally, the toolkit contains ideas for local faith communities to take action against human trafficking, as well as links to additional print and multimedia resources.
