The Sordid Truth About Sex Trafficking

Year:  2018  |  Competency/Strategic Skill:  N/A  |  Priority Topic:  N/A  |  Setting:  Online  |  Format:  On-Demand  |  Sponsor:  Alabama Public Health Training Network, Alabama Department of Public Health 

Overview:

This is a two-hour recording of a live webcast.

Sex trafficking is a form of modern-day slavery in which individuals perform commercial sex through the use of force, fraud, or coercion. This type of modern-day slavery isn’t just relegated to brothels and back alleys of larger cities. It’s happening in all 50 states. It is estimated that there are almost five million people trapped in forced sexual exploitation globally, and the sex trafficking ‘super highway’ runs from Birmingham, Alabama to Atlanta, Georgia. Program faculty will discuss the latest statistics associated with sex trafficking in the United States, the various types and signs of sex trafficking, and tattoos that are commonly associated with victims. The program will also provide information on the physical injuries and mental issues, along with discussing the needs of sex trafficking victims.
