The truth is that the open border is leading to a huge increase in human and especially child trafficking.
However, few people realize that what pushes illegal immigrants north is *publicity*. Easy to cross and jobs available and the numbers go up. Hard to cross and strong enforcement, and a lot of them decide to not even try.
But there is a third element. *Nobody* wants to sacrifice their children to a life of prostitution and slavery.
So if we can just get the word out, south of the border, that children are being taken for prostitution and slavery, a LOT fewer people will want to send their children north.
The best networking to do this are the Christian churches that have connections south of the border. They can spread the message and it will do a lot.

Which is why I challenge very liberal I hear going on about human trafficking (knowing full well that they are also FOR open borders).
Good points BUT the charity organizations are making MONEY hand over fist and have no interest in stopping the flood of illegal aliens.

There were a couple of movies out there about people who sold their daughters into slavery knowing their fate.
In some cases there was the hope that the daughter would do well in her new "profession" and would send needed money home.
You'd have to fight that mentality at its source.
Movies: One was "The Good Woman of Bangkok." Another one was some movie (about 8 years ago?) based in India, the girl's elderly father was crippled and could no longer work, the girl was sold to some procuress in a distant city, the family knew full well of her fate but pretended to not know. Wish I could recall the title. The girl in the movie manages to escape prostitution and slavery, so there is a happy ending.
