As many of you know, I am involved in a lot to fight modern slavery and human trafficking, The state where I was born, Ohio, has had significant problems with this issue, with Toledo, Ohio being ranked 4th in the nation according to some studies. But as reported on CNN’s Freedom Project, everyday people are working to change the situation.

My encouragement? Watch the clip, consider where you live, and do something to make the world better where you live. If we all do, tomorrow our world will be a much different place.
