A CALL TO MEN, a national men's organization committed to ending and preventing domestic and sexual violence and ManUP, an intiative dedicated to ending gender violence against women through the arts, sports and technology have teamed up to create a petition calling for Raymond Kelly, the Commission of the NYPD, to expand anti-trafficking initiatives to all five boroughs- specifically those targeting buyers and purveyors of sex trafficking. Far too often, sex trafficking is recognized in NYC when victims are apprehended and wrongly convicted of prostitution. It's time to stand up and protect victims by legally targeting those facilitating and utilizing the industry.
Urge Commissioner Kelly to expand anti-trafficking efforts so NYC can create a borough-wide, united front against trafficking: http://www.change.org/petitions/urge-nypd-commissioner-raymond-kelly-to-act-swiftly-to-end-demand-in-nyc
