Although the issue of human trafficking is receiving increased attention from the media, politicians, organizations, and even celebrities, it is not a new phenomenon. Often referred to as a modern form of slavery, human trafficking ranges from sex work and prostitution to forced labor in a variety of industries. Although the stereotype of a trafficking victim is a young woman or child (Hart, 2007), victims include women, children, and men of all ages and backgrounds. Human trafficking survivors are forced to live with the physical and emotional scars resulting from the abuse that they experienced at the hands of their traffickers. This course is designed to provide health care practitioners and those in related professions with insight into the realities of human trafficking and the types of sources and interventions available to assist those caught up in a trafficking situation.
