How Human Trafficking Affects You
The Most Common Types Of Trafficking
Most people see the movies and they think that Human Trafficking is related to kidnapping. While some of those occurances happen, there are more common and insidious entrances into a life of sex work that most victims are unaware of until they are already in it.
What Most People Don’t Know About Victims
Chances are you know a victim. That’s right. Many of the victims of Human trafficking seem like every-day people in our lives, but they often harbor deep shame, pain and guilt. It’s ok that you didn’t know, but if you want to make a positive change, learning about their struggle will help.
