As a leader of Alabama’s trucking industry, the Alabama Trucking Association seeks your assistance and support in confronting a growing problem of human trafficking and commercial sexual exploitation.

You’re invited to participate in a special virtual briefing co-hosted by ATA, Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall; Busing on the Lookout; and Truckers Against Trafficking Thursday, Oct. 22, 2020, from 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.

You will learn about law enforcement issues related to child sexual exploitation and human trafficking and briefed on the harsh realities of domestic sex trafficking, and the critical role our industry serves in fighting it.

We know your time is valuable, but we encourage you to make time to attend.
