On this International Women's Day, we want to take On this International Women's Day, we want to take a moment to sit with the fact that human trafficking has long been recognized as particularly and disproportionately affecting women and girls. With an estimated 70% of all individuals being trafficked globally, the disparity is staggering. ⁠
⁠
The counter and more encouraging narrative that is often overlooked is that women lead the way in the fight for freedom. Thousands of women across the globe are using their skills, experiences, resources, and platforms to enact real change and turn the tide against trafficking. Here's to all of the women working together #TilEveryoneIsFree. #internationalwomensday⁠

Ellen Garrison, the daughter, and granddaughter of men who had been enslaved, began her anti-slavery activism at the age of 12! After the Civil War, Garrison was a leader in the fight against segregation. She became a teacher of newly freed people and used education as a tool to empower her community. ⁠
⁠
Ellen's lifelong commitment to civil rights is an inspiration. Her wisdom in using education as a tool for empowerment is a lesson we can learn as we continue to fight for equity and justice. Learn more about Ellen at the link in our profile.
