This piece is part of a series of weekly released illustrations on traffic ticket envelopes to help drive awareness around the issue of sex trafficking in the US. Each piece addresses a fact about the issue and when it is sold, a donation is made to organizations that help to keep youth off of the street. I choose to support these organizations so that they can continue to provide underprivileged youth with guidance and the means to keep them away from predators.
