GREEN BAY, Wis. (WFRV) - On Thursday, Brown County District 23 Supervisor Dixon Wolfe called on the Green Bay Packers to help fund local efforts to educate the public and provide resources for victims of human trafficking during the NFL Draft. "It's important that we start mitigation efforts quickly to help educate the public and protect our most vulnerable populations by ensuring proper funding is available to prevent human trafficking locally," Wolfe said via a release.

"I'm very thankful that the county has $20,000 in contingency funds," Wolfe said. "I'd like to increase those efforts by calling on the Packers to do their fair share in fighting against trafficking issues." Wolfe seeks a matching $20,000 donation from the Packers to aid in the fight against human trafficking. The local non-profit 'Awaken' will use the funding to provide emergency housing, marketing and advocacy programs. According to the release, data indicates that human trafficking is a roughly $150 billion industry and has millions of cases around the world. With the NFL Draft heading to Brown County, officials are counting on the Packers to help local law enforcement be ready to educate the community and respond to any incidents. "Trafficking doesn't discriminate, so by being informed and aware of the signs of human trafficking, we can all play a role in protecting potential victims," Wolfe said via the release.
