Efforts to Combat Human Trafficking Honored by White House

the below is from 2012 and it's just one . there are others from different times and events.


<On Monday, September 24, I got the thrill of a lifetime. I was a guest of the White House at the UN Head of State Reception, where I had the great honor of meeting President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama. I was also excited about the exceptional opportunity to discuss efforts against human trafficking—and my passion to grow the number of women in the field of computing—with interested heads of state from 150 countries and leaders of the top advocacy organizations fighting human trafficking in the United States today. The invitation was the result of my participation in efforts to use technology to combat the modern-day scourge of sex trafficking.>

According to one DU thread, any way, even though human trafficking has been an issue the Obamas have consistently spoken out on.
