The Problem: Human and Child Trafficking

Human trafficking is a global public health and human rights problem. The myriad adverse health and mental health consequences of trafficking prompt many trafficked persons to seek health care during or after their exploitation.  Health professionals have the opportunity to prevent, and recognize human trafficking, and provide a link between exploited patients and organizations providing support services.
