SOCIAL ACTION PROJECT

My project will be compiled of two elements. My “in-field” experience will be through direct volunteering with a local organization called FAIR Girls, a non-profit that works to end human trafficking one life at a time through survivor-centered and trauma-informed services, prevention, and advocacy. This will be effective for my investment in the community and help towards the issue of my project however it will also be a means of educating myself and sharing my findings later on. This brings me to the second part of my project: the creation of an awareness-building social media campaign through an Instagram account. This platform will be devoted to raising awareness through posts about warning signs, surprising statistics, sharing stories, and inspirational quotes. Together, these two elements will put education, experience and support all into one social media account and presence where a community of awareness can be built between women, victims, and educators.
