]]> International Justice Mission shares some staggering statistics about human trafficking and slavery. Here’s just a couple:

  • The total market value of illicit human trafficking is estimated to be in excess of $32 billion (U.N.)
  • 27 million men, women and children are held as slaves. (Kevin Bales, Disposable People)
  • Each year, more than 2 million children are exploited in the global commercial sex trade (UNICEF)

This week they launch a new documentary ‘At the End of Slavery‘, with opportunities for your church or group to host a screening. I’ve included the two trailers below. It will shock you.

On a related note, I’m also impressed with their use of social media. Follow International Justice Mission on Twitter, Facebook, Vimeo and YouTube.
