Human Trafficking Education

Human trafficking education refers to efforts to raise awareness about human trafficking, to educate people about how to prevent it, and how to support victims of trafficking. Human trafficking education can be provided to a variety of audiences, including community members, law enforcement, healthcare providers, and other professionals who may come into contact with trafficking victims. This education can include information about the signs of human trafficking, the laws and policies related to trafficking, and the services and support available to victims. Human trafficking education can help to create a more informed and proactive community that is better able to identify and respond to instances of human trafficking.
