Homeless LGBT Youths are easy prey for Human Trafficking


This makes me sad, y'all.

On the The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) website, they talk about a frightening issue besetting homeless LGBT youth.

Not only do they make up 40% of the runaway and homeless youth population, but they face huge chances of being victims of human trafficking.

More and more of our youths are falling victims to this everyday. And the horrible thing is they don't see a way out. However, organizations are trying to change this situation. There are services like the Runaway and Homeless Youth Program and The Family and Youth Services Bureau that are trying to save our kids from the streets. And there are others as well, fighting to save our youths from human trafficking.

If you can, help support these initiatives or places in your cities. Our kids need us and if we can help, we need to do so.
