Hidden in Plain Sight: The Impact of Human Trafficking

Human trafficking is a growing criminal industry, affecting millions of people globally, nationally, and locally. As community advocates and health care professionals, realizing the complex needs of those who have been impacted by the trauma of human trafficking can make a difference in someone’s life. In this presentation, individuals with two organizations provided education about what human trafficking and sexual exploitation looks like, available programs, and how to assist those impacted in the Dakotas. This webinar was presented by the Dakota AIDS Education & Training Center (DAETC) and North Dakota Health & Human Services.

  • Demonstrate knowledge of what activities are identified as human trafficking;
