Summary
Human trafficking is often talked about as something that happens somewhere else. Another country. Another state. To someone else’s community.
But the reality is far different.
In this episode of Make It Make Sense, Alabama, we sit down with Allana Chris and Genna Van Varden of The Little Tree Project, a nonprofit working directly with survivors of human trafficking and alongside law enforcement agencies across the state.
Together, we break down what trafficking actually looks like in real life, not just the version portrayed in movies. From coercion and manipulation to the role of open source intelligence and community awareness, this conversation offers a closer look at how exploitation happens and why it often goes unnoticed.
We also talk about common misconceptions, warning signs the public should be aware of, and what to do if you suspect someone may be a victim.
This is a heavy topic, but it’s one that deserves attention.
