The 2011 Peace NOW! Spirit Music Festival is proud to partner with CAST, the Coalition to Abolish Slavery and Trafficking.

Did you know more people are slaves today than ever before? Men, women and children are enslaved as commodity for sex, forced labor and indentured servitude. Among slaves, children are the most vulnerable and their rights are the least recognized.

- 12.3 million people are enslaved today worldwide.

- More than one million people are enslaved in the U.S. today.

- Two million children are bought and sold in the global commercial sex trade.

- The global sex slavery market generates $32 billion in profits each year.

- Every 10 minutes, a woman or child is trafficked into the United States for forced labor.

Based in Los Angeles, CAST remains the only organization in the country that offers social services, shelter, and legal services to victims of the modern day slave trade.

Be part of the solution.
