Human Trafficking: MYTH: Human trafficking is the same as smuggling. FACT: Human trafficking is not smuggling. In smuggling, people consent to be transported across a border, typically for a fee. In human trafficking, people are recruited (usually by fraud), transported, held and forced to labor against their will. We will examine the scope and complexity of human trafficking using the curiculum The Thoughtful Christian – Faithful Living in a Complex World. The first of 4 sessions will be on Sunday, June 6, 5:30 – 6:30 pm.
