AIGA Atlanta human trafficking awareness call for entries. Basic requirements limited it to a 16 x 20 poster. Part of the 'America's Dirty Secret' campaign. 

For this sort of public awareness campaign  I thought it would be more effective to include a human face. The objective was to provoke an emotional call to action. The background is an American flag that shapes downward into a chain-linked fence.
