Back To Human Trafficking Toolkit for Healthcare Professionals

How Human Trafficking is Related to Healthcare

Healthcare professionals may be one of the first professionals to come in contact with a potential human trafficking victim when they seek medical treatment. Women and girls are the most common victims of human trafficking and it is important for healthcare providers to have the skills and resources available to assess and address potential victims as it may be the last chance a victim has to be identified and get help. These resources provide the healthcare provider with tools to assess and identify victims.
