The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops’ Anti-Trafficking Program has initiated the Amistad Movement,a new awareness campaign in immigrant communities. The campaign is designed to focus on awareness raising, education, and coalition building among communities most vulnerable to exploitation and trafficking, especially recent immigrants engaged in industries that are poorly regulated (e.g., agriculture, domestic/in-home care, and hospitality).
