MEDIA ADVISORY
In cooperation with our community partners, South Bay Coalition to End Human Trafficking, Community Solutions, MATRI, and AACI, the San José Police Department, and the Norman Y. Mineta San José International Airport are proud to announce a human trafficking campaign focusing on our Asian Pacific Islander communities. The campaign will be posted on billboards, on social media, and within the Norman Y. Mineta San José International Airport in multiple languages.
Human trafficking is a reality in our community. Vulnerable persons from Asian Pacific Islander communities are being coerced into lives of violence, wage theft, sexual abuse, and exploitation. These survivors are part of your community, and you have the power to do something about it. Being silent adds to the shame a victim can feel. No one deserves to be subjected to exploitation for someone else’s profit.
Human trafficking has many faces, and a survivor could be a family member, a friend, an acquaintance, or even a stranger. Learn the red flags for human trafficking and if you notice something, find out how to get help and support. Survivors of human trafficking are some of the most vulnerable among us.
VICTIMS OF HUMAN
TRAFFICKING NEED
SUPPORT, NOT SHAME.
Human Trafficking is happening in our community
If you or someone you know has been forced to have sex with customers, work without pay, or had an
ID or documents taken by an employer, there is help.
