Using it for a church book read.By DebraThis book provides a good overview of human trafficking in the United States and is readable for the average person. Each chapter covers a specific form of trafficking through life story and then gives further explanation of the issues of trafficking ending with questions relevant to the information covered in the chapter. The book is clear; concise and easily read. We are using this book specifically for a church book read as an additional way to inform members of our parish about the issues of human trafficking in conjunction with an education program in our community and in partnership with 2 local HT organizations. Some books we considered were too disturbing for a large book read. The sad part of this effort is the more we educate and discuss in our parish; the more people are coming forward with personal experience and exposure to Human Trafficking in our suburban backyard. The only reason I rated this book a 4 rather than 5 is the questions at the end of each chapter are more like test questions with factual answers that can be found by reading the text as opposed to discussion questions that might get at the moral and responsive aspect of this horrific fact of our culture.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.

Diane VchulekNita Belle has written an educational and informative book about the Human Trafficking issue that is occurring under out noses--"in our backyard". Her passion for those who have been enslaved by people who worship money and will go to any lengths to obtain it is obvious. When you see her in action; she is fearless in her need to offer help to those caught in this trap. I count myself lucky to have her as a friend and to be able to learn and share information in her company. Thank you Nita!!
