This is by no means a comprehensive list. I follow a ton of people on Twitter that shine light on child/human trafficking all the time—this particular group just beats the drum pretty consistently (and has updated within the past month). I know there are hundreds more so feel free to leave your suggestions!

One of the things that you do best has to do with keeping us all in the loop and connected. I really appreciate that about you. Thanks. Alex
Also great to Follow: Nosilencenow, Kyle Smith, Amber Smith, and Josh Mancuso
Thank you Alex! :) I love what you do over at http://hopeisa4letterword.blogspot.com.
I also want to recommend that people who are interested check out Diane Beeler's new list of human rights Twitterers to follow. You can see that here: http://itdawnedonme.wordpress.com/2009/04/08/human-rights-activists-on-twitter/ and you can follow her on Twitter at http://twitter.com/dianebeeler.
I'm looking forward to checking out the anonymous recommendations as well--so glad that someone left them!
