'Truckers Against Trafficking' Hopes to Bring Justice to Young Women

 You might have seen the "Real Men Don't Buy Girls" campaign recently, but celebrities are not the only ones making a difference. A nationwide campaign, Truckers Against Trafficking hopes to put a stop to trafficking, specifically on highways and truck stops.

The campaign helps educate truck drivers on identifying the signs of sex trafficking and to properly notify the authorities when suspected trafficking happens.

Nevada Trucking Association CEO Paul J. Enos said members are "sickened by the evils of human trafficking."

"Truckers are the eyes and ears of our highways and truck stops, so we are asking truckers to notify the authorities when they see signs of these activities," Enos said.
