Driving Freedom Podcast

Welcome to Driving Freedom, a TAT Podcast! As TAT works to educate, equip, empower and mobilize members of the truck, bus and energy industries to combat human trafficking as part of their regular jobs, we wanted to create a podcast that would serve as a helpful training tool to one of the largest mobile armies of eyes and ears out there on the roads seeking to recognize and report this heinous crime. Each short episode is designed to refresh critical issues learned and keep this life-saving informationtop of mind.

Victim Recovery with Professional Driver and Harriet Tubman Award Winner, Arian Taylor

February 03, 2021 • Truckers Against Trafficking • Season 1 • Episode 13

“You are my hero.” That’s the sentiment we often hear when it comes to our Harriet Tubman Award winners, and it is who we know professional drivers to be. The Truckers Against Trafficking (TAT) Harriet Tubman Award, presented by Protective Insurance, honors a member of the trucking, bus, or energy industry whose actions directly impacted the life of someone exploited through human trafficking. Arian Taylor of Ballard Trucking shares the story of how he was in the right place at the right time with the right training to open a door to recovery and safety. Imagine a woman made to get out of a car holding all of her possessions while you’re waiting to unload your trailer. What would you do? Tune in to hear the experience and the impact of Arian’s call.
