The Proposal
• I Introduction
• Attention getter (hook) – A modern-day incarnation of slavery in the United States is human trafficking.
• Define terms – Victims of human trafficking frequently experience physical and psychological torture, rape, threats against themselves and their families, passport theft, and even death.

The federal and state governments are attempting to put an end to this horrifying and terrible epidemic, but if we are to properly safeguard children, parents MUST be involved.
Gloss over: “Why are you telling me this” Only by involving the federal, state, and local governments can human trafficking be stopped.
