ABOUT US: Freedom Ladder is an organization dedicated to making the world safer for young people through popular entertainment. We created a comic book, "Abolitionista!," with the help of the FBI, to educate young people about the threat of human trafficking and empower them to protect themselves. There is an estimated 100,000-300,000 American children trafficked every year into the sex industry and the number is growing. The purpose of the comic book is to reach them before they're victimized.
