January is Poverty in America Awareness Month. Throughout this month, we will call attention to this injustice that happens in our own neighborhoods. The United States is said to be one of the greatest countries in the world, but there are millions of people right here who are deprived … people who may have inadequate clothing for winter months or who must choose between paying rent or buying food or medicine.

There are many ways we can help our sisters and brothers in need. Local shelters and food banks are always in need of good used clothing and non-perishable food items. A little kindness can go a long way to someone in need. What need are you seeing?

National Slavery and Human Trafficking Prevention Month, also called Human Trafficking Awareness Month, is acknowledged each year in January.

The horrific injustice of human trafficking can affect people of any race and background. The signs of human trafficking are subtle. Traffickers often use invisible bonds such as threats, drugs, or debt instead of locks and chains. By knowing what human trafficking is, what signs to look for, and whom to contact for help, everyone can play an important role in identifying and supporting victims. We are all called to fight human trafficking wherever it exists.

For more information, visit the human trafficking section of the Office for Victims of Crime website at www.ovc.gov/trafficking or call the National Human Trafficking Resource Center at 888–373–7888
