    S1E1 - Intersectionality & Human Trafficking: Why One-Size-Fits-All Solutions Fail

    Welcome to Season 1 of Beyond Awareness (formerly I Dare You) from United Against Human Trafficking.

Through personal stories and reflections, they set the stage for a season that will dive deeper into the communities most affected by trafficking and highlight how inclusive, survivor-centered approaches can make a real difference. Tune in, learn something new, and join the conversation.

    #9 Why is Collaboration Vital to the Anti-Trafficking Movement?

    Human trafficking is a dark, heinous crime that spans the globe, harming millions of people. Is it really possible to tackle such a massive criminal enterprise? We think yes! The only effective way to do it is through the collective power of community members, government, and service providers to intentionally and strategically collaborate. Coalition Manager at UAHT, Ken Henry, and host, Elaine Andino, discuss why working together is critical in the anti-trafficking movement, practical ways to support one another's efforts, and how to collaborate with people you disagree with.
