This year’s forum united law enforcement, community leaders, and advocates with the purpose of educating the public and crafting solutions that bolster prevention and provide support to victims. Attendees gained invaluable insights from experts on identifying warning signs, listened to compelling survivor stories that highlighted the impact of trafficking, and engaged in discussions about the proactive measures Fulton County is adopting to combat this urgent issue.
