If you haven’t saved the date yet, it’s not too late: National Human Trafficking Awareness Day, also known as #WearBlueDay, is this month. On January 11, 2024, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) Center for Countering Human Trafficking’s (CCHT) Blue Campaign invites you to help combat this crime by raising awareness — and it all starts with wearing blue. By wearing blue, the international color of human trafficking awareness, you’re stating your commitment to bringing this heinous crime out of the shadows. Participating is easy: Once you’ve picked a favorite blue outfit or item of clothing, take a picture of yourself wearing it and share the photo on social media. Whether it’s a selfie, group picture, or video, just make sure to use the hashtag #WearBlueDay.
Leading up to #WearBlueDay, the Campaign will share awareness resources on our website and social media channels. Follow Blue Campaign (@DHSBlueCampaign on X, Facebook, and Instagram) for more details.
