The Tire Industry Association has joined the fight against the global issue of human trafficking by becoming a sponsor of TAT (Truckers Against Trafficking).

TAT is a 501c3 organization dedicated to raising up a defensive force of transportation professionals across North America to assist law enforcement in the recognition and reporting of human trafficking to aid in the recovery of victims and the arrest of perpetrators.

TAT stands committed to educate, equip, empower and mobilize members of key industries and agencies to combat human trafficking.

 

Human Trafficking

Human trafficking is modern-day slavery, robbing individuals of their freedom and dignity by trapping them in commercial sex and forced labor. It’s a horrific crime that demands a relentless fight on all fronts. Human trafficking is a thriving criminal activity, with traffickers exploiting victims, including women and children, out of schools, online, in shopping malls, as well as on streets and other locations.

 

Make a Pledge

Education: Actively seek out information on human trafficking and implement TAT training, so staff and personnel can identify red flags.

Awareness: Share what you learn with partners and customers.

Action: Distribute and hang awareness materials in brick-and-mortar locations.

TIA is committed to furthering our company's understanding of human trafficking, and we encourage you to join us in the fight. For more information on how to get involved, please visit www.tatnonprofit.org/dealerships.
