Earlier this year Huston, Texas based,
Free the Captives, launched the “
Reducing the Demand” campaign, targeting the Johns. The campaign then went to work producing
billboards and a
Radio and TV commercial targeting Johns, who purchase sex, to highlight the realities of sex trafficking and debunk the myths that have continually plagued victims and advocates. The PSA's are now up and beginning to air and; the video features, Sheriff Garcia, whose stern and strong presence makes it clear that men who purchase women and girls for sexual -or any other- purpose, will no longer be tolerated in Harris County, Texas. Please watch the video PSA "Buyer BEWARE: You will be Arrested! (The Realities of Sex Trafficking)" Commercial and Billboards in Texas Seek to Impact the Demand for Sex Trafficking below:
These PSA's and billboards make it clear that when you buy sex you are fueling human trafficking, and we how to see more incentives like this sweeping the country.
Texas has once again taken a great step in the state level fight to end national and global human trafficking. More calls come from Texas to the National Human Trafficking Hotline than any other state, due to the great incentives put into place including the use of billboards and campaign efforts by
Huston Rescue and Restore.
The first step to ending human trafficking and modern slavery is to end demand! Please share these resources to help open the eyes of others and see we put an end to the enslavement of innocent men, women and children once and for all.
