A caravan of 72 school buses formed a mile-long billboard earlier this week to raise awareness of Georgia’s massive number of children sold into sex slavery each year.Created by BBDO Atlanta and PR firm Porter Novelli for the nonprofit Street Grace, the Jan. 2 event began with a press conference including Georgia’s governor-elect, attorney general and a child sex trafficking survivor. The buses then formed a caravan that brought Atlanta’s notoriously tangled traffic to a standstill while highlighting the hashtag #StopTraffick. The event kicked off Human Trafficking Awareness Month and brought the global issue home by highlighting the state’s estimated 3,600 annual victims of sex trafficking. The 72 school buses represented the number that would be needed to transport such a large number of young people.
