( WHITE TWP . , NJ - January 10 , 2024 ) - January 2024 was proclaimed “Human Trafficking Prevention Month” by the Board of County Commissioners tonight .
   Human trafficking robs millions of their freedom , enriches transnational criminals , and threatens public safety and security everywhere , the Commissions noted in their proclamation . In observing Human Trafficking Prevention Month , the Commissioners urge residents to help raise awareness as the County renews its dedication to eliminating such abhorrent acts , stands by victims and survivors , and works to ensure that traffickers are held responsible for their crimes .
   Warren County Prosecutor James Pfeiffer , who accepted the proclamation from county Commissioners Jason J . Sarnoski , Lori Ciesla , and Director James R . Kern III , noted that“Even though we live in a beautiful place , these things do happen here . They happen all over the country . ” Pfeiffer thanked the commissioners for supporting the effort , adding , “With the support of the community , we should be able to make a dent in this . The key is really being vigilant . Making sure if you see something , say something . ”
   Kern said that while Warren is a rural , beautiful county , it is crossed by major interstate highways and “so much goes on that a lot of people aren’t aware of . ” Combatting human trafficking requires agencies to work together to catch the criminals who participate in these acts , he said , adding , he was thankful the county Prosecutor’s Office is working with local police departments , State Police and federal partners .
   “It’s important for us to bring awareness to this issue , because it can happen anywhere , ” Ciesla said . New Jersey is a corridor for goods and people coming in from other countries , so vigilance is needed to watch for people who are victims of trafficking .
   Sarnoski said that New Jersey’s liberal laws have made the state a safe haven for human traffickers , and praised the strong stand the Prosecutor’s Office is taking against trafficking .
