Human Trafficking

What is Human Trafficking?

Human trafficking is the exploitation of human beings for gain. Trafficking exploitation can exist in many forms and usually entails victims being caused to provide sexual services or labor through force, coercion, deception and/or abuse of trust, power, or authority. Human trafficking therefore results in serious physical, psychological, and emotional trauma to the victims.
