This month, The Salvation Army will participate in two important days of remembrance and action: the International Day of Prayer for Victims of Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking (MSHT) on September 22, and the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on September 30. In this interview with Kristin Ostensen, managing editor, Major Ray Lamont, territorial modern slavery and human trafficking response co-ordinator, and Captain Crystal Porter, territorial Indigenous ministries consultant, talk about why Indigenous people are more vulnerable to MSHT, how the Army is fighting MSHT in our territory, and how Salvationists can prioritize MSHT response work and reconciliation year round.

Major Ray Lamont and Captain Crystal Porter look at how the Army is currently fighting modern slavery and human trafficking, and why Indigenous people are more likely to be affected by this injustice.

This National Indigenous History Month and beyond, will you walk the reconciliation path with us? Healing happens when we walk together.
