Riverside第五届反人口贩运青少年步行10月24日在市政厅举行 免费参加 同场设丰收节与变装比赛
Riverside——位于加州河滨县的Riverside市，非营利组织 Magdalena's Daughters 主办的第五届反人口贩运青少年步行（Anti-Human Trafficking Walk for Youth）将于10月24日（周六）11时至15时在 Riverside 市政厅（Riverside City Hall, 3900 Main Street）举行，免费向公众开放。
主办方介绍，本届活动以「自由属于每一个孩子」为主题，邀集青少年、家庭、社区领袖、服务机构与倡导者，提高公众对人口贩运的认识，并强化保护青少年的社区联系。今年活动新增丰收节与万圣节环节，现场设有社区步行、最佳变装比赛、儿童糖果、南瓜与秋季活动、现场娱乐与舞蹈、食物与茶点，以及青少年与家庭资源摊位；已登记的步行者可领取奖牌与礼包，数量有限、送完为止。
主办方表示，人口贩运的预防在剥削发生之前就已开始：当青少年拥有安全的关系、可信赖的成年人、支持他们的社区与归属感时，风险就会降低。活动建议穿着舒适的步行鞋，欢迎家庭穿着亲子友好的变装参加。
5th Annual Anti-Human Trafficking Walk for Youth Set for Oct. 24 at Riverside City Hall
RIVERSIDE, Calif. — Riverside is a city in Riverside County, California. The 5th Annual Anti-Human Trafficking Walk for Youth, hosted by the nonprofit Magdalena's Daughters, will be held on Saturday, October 24, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Riverside City Hall, 3900 Main Street. Admission is free and open to everyone.
Held under the theme "Freedom belongs to every child," the event brings together youth, families, community leaders, service providers and advocates to raise awareness about human trafficking and strengthen the connections that help protect young people. This year's walk adds a Harvest Fest and Halloween experience, with a community walk, a best-dressed costume contest, candy for children, pumpkins and fall activities, live entertainment and dancing, food and refreshments, and youth and family resource tables. Registered walkers receive a medal and swag bag while supplies last.
The organizers say human trafficking prevention begins long before exploitation occurs — when young people have safe relationships, trusted adults, supportive communities and places where they belong. Comfortable walking shoes are recommended, and families are encouraged to wear family-friendly costumes.
