“What trafficking victims endure is incomparable to what most of us confront in a lifetime and should put into context the small injustices and frustrations of our daily work and lives. The same can be said of their  courage and strength, both during their exploitation and recovery. Of the tens of thousands of victims  identified this year worldwide, some will become advocates, some will go on to achieve personal goals, and  some will continue to need care. This Report stands for the belief that all survivors should be able to feel their power and live their truth.  Whether becoming a witness or an activist, an employer or employee, the journey from victim to survivor is  one that no one should walk alone. Last year, we challenged governments to ensure trafficking victims have  “the freedom to choose their own futures.” That future is now.” Luis CdeBaca – Ambassador-at-Large to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons
