From behind the wheel, getting involved with causes you care about can be hard when you’re on the road so much. How do you do that? What opportunities are there? That’s why Laura Cyrus of Truckers Against Trafficking is joining us on this episode of Drive.

Laura is the Senior Director of Industry Training and Outreach. After learning about human trafficking early on in college, she felt called to work in this field.
