Professional Training & Technical Assistance

Individuals impacted by human trafficking often remain hidden and out-of-sight but there are times when they may need to access medical services, seek community services or use public transportation. Unfortunately, without training, professionals working in hospitals, clinics, schools and transit center may not recognize the signs and indicators of human trafficking.
