kerryrivera+FollowWhat most people get wrong about traffickingHuman trafficking isn’t just a movie plot or something that happens far away—it’s happening right here in Dallas, often to the most vulnerable kids in our own foster care system. Chad Frymire, a neighbor and advocate, learned this the hardest way after his own sister was exploited. He says traffickers usually use manipulation and emotional abuse, not violence, and target kids who are already struggling. It’s not just about sex trafficking, either—labor trafficking is a huge issue too. What do you think our community can do to better protect vulnerable kids and support survivors? #Safety #Dallas #HumanTrafficking00Share
