Who is involved in trafficking?
• The
recruiter/spotter gains the victim’s trust and then
sells them for labor or to a pimp. Sometimes this is a
boyfriend, a neighbor, or even a family member.
• The
trafficker/pimp is the one who controls the victims.
By making the victim fearful through abuse, threats, and
lies the trafficker gains power over his/her victim.
• The

trafficked person or victim could be anyone.
consumer/john funds the human trafficking industry
by purchasing goods and services. S/he may be
unaware that someone is suffering and that there is a
victim.
Three Elements of Trafficking

person
By force, fraud
or coercion
For the purpose
of involuntary
servitude,

slavery or sex
trade
There does not have to have physical abuse.

Prosecutors don’t have to prove force
when a minor under the age of 18 is
being trafficked
Any individual can be guilty of
committing trafficking of a child; no
specific relationship required
Restitution is available to trafficking
victims
Trafficking victims may also have a
civil cause of action to recover other
damages from the trafficker
Myths & Statistics
Myth #1: All prostitutes are willing participants.
• Children as young as 12 are used in commercial sex and
prostitution. (4)
• Every year 1 million children are exploited by the commercial
sex trade worldwide. (5)
• Commercial sex is extremely violent and dangerous.
• 34 is the average age of death for those in commercial sex.(6)
http://youtu.be/-NQoaf-2nsE
Myths & Statistics
Myth #2: Human trafficking occurs only in foreign countries.
• Between 14,500 and 17,500 men, women, and children are
trafficked into the United States each year. (7)
• Every year 100,000 to 300,000 U.S. children are at risk of being
victims of sex trafficking, according to the National Center for
Missing and Exploited Children. (8)
• Of sex trafficking victims found in the U.S., 83% were U.S.
citizens, according to a Justice Department study. (9)

Countries
The United States is one of the most
popular destinations for human
trafficking.
Human Trafficking & Sporting Events
Studies have shown that there is an increase in the demand for
commercial sex services surrounding large sporting events or
conventions such as the Super Bowl, World Series, etc.
According to the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department,
68 prostitution arrests were made before and on the day of the
2011 Super Bowl.
2 human trafficking victims were identified and 2 other
potential human trafficking victims were identified.
Reported Rescue of 16 youth ages 13 to 17 during a sting
operation by the FBI targeting sex traffickers bringing victims to
New Jersey for the Super Bowl weekend (FoxNews.com,
February 4, 2014).
The Victim or Trafficked Person
Human Trafficking has no socioeconomic or cultural barriers. Regardless
of their demographics, victims are vulnerable in some way, and the
traffickers will use their particular vulnerability to exploit them.
Some risk factors –
Think: “What makes a person vulnerable?”
Youth
Poverty
Unemployment
Desperation
Homes in countries torn by armed conflict, civil unrest,
political upheaval, corruption, or natural disasters
Family backgrounds with violence, abuse, conflict
Chronic runaways; involvement in the child welfare system
Homelessness
A need to be loved
Immigration status
Addiction
Why Don’t Trafficked Victims Escape?
TRAFFICKED PERSONS HAVE JUSTIFIABLE FEARS!
•They may be in danger if they try to leave.
•The traffickers have such a strong psychological and physiological
hold on them -“Trauma Bonding” (imbalance of power and
intermittent violence).
•They fear for the safety of their families in their home countries or
in the U.S.
•They are afraid of being deported or arrested.
•They may fear the U.S. legal system because they may not
understand the laws that protect them.
•They may not be able to support themselves on their own.
IT IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO PROTECT AND ASSIST
PEOPLE BEING EXPLOITED.
How Are People Recruited?
•

•
•
•
•

•
Grooming / “Boyfriend”
Internet and social media
Fake employment agencies
Acquaintances or family
Newspaper ads
Front businesses

The Trafficker
•The trafficker will likely be
in a lucrative business
enterprise as the heart of
human trafficking is
exploiting cheap labor.
•The trafficker may be part
of a larger organized
crime ring or gang, or
may be profiting
independently.
The Trafficker
• Might be someone who knows the victim and
victim’s family.
• May be bilingual.
• May be an older man with younger women who
seems to be controlling, watching their every move,
and correcting/instructing them frequently.
The Consumer / John
• 10% of men in the U.S.
buy sex from prostituted
or trafficked
individuals.(11)
• Frequent “Johns” are
more likely to be
married/older. (12)
• Don’t Buy the Lie.(13)
• Anyone who
unknowingly (or
knowingly) purchases
goods and services from
an organization who
uses trafficked victims.
Role of Healthcare Providers
As a provider, you are in a unique position to recognize,
identify, reach out and rescue victims.
While trafficking is largely a hidden crime, many victims are in
plain sight if you know what to look for.
Since pimps and traffickers generally exercise nearly complete
control of their victims, these points of contact with healthcare
represent rare opportunities for victim identification and
intervention.
A Critical Role for Healthcare Providers
• 87.8% of trafficking victims encounter a health care
professional while still captive.(19)
• Few if any of these encounters result in the victim being
freed because of lack of training to recognize victims.(14)
• Lack of training results in misconceptions among healthcare
providers, hindering identification of and service provision to
victims.(15)

SART models have
dramatically enhanced the
services provided to
victims of sexual assault in
communities throughout
the United States and
should be used for
trafficking victims
whenever possible.

You are a victim,
not a criminal.
We are not
working with the
individuals who
hurt you and took
advantage of you.
We are here to
help you.
The people who
did this to you
are the
criminals. You
were mistreated
and your rights
were violated.

Interview
 Conduct all interviews in a private setting away from
the person accompanying the patient.
 May need an interpreter, but, do not allow the
accompanying person to act as the interpreter.
 Interview may take significant time as the patient may
not recognize himself/herself as a victim.
 Be sensitive, every incident of human trafficking is
different.
 Do not ask if they are a victim of human trafficking as
they may not even know what is happening to them
or may have been trained to lie about it. They may
even feel responsible for their situation.
Interview

If the Individual is a female, approach should be
made by a female staff member.

Separate the Individual from his/her belongings and
escort/interpreter.

The victim may be wearing/carrying some sort of
tracking/communication device such as a GPS
transmitter, cell phone or other small device – you
can separate the victim from these devices by getting
him/her into a gown and into an x-ray room.

If possible, choose a comfortable space which is
conducive to confidentiality.
Interview

Utilize existing culturally sensitive protocols.

Use age-appropriate language when working with
minors.

When you ask about sexual history, be sure to
distinguish between consensual experiences and
non-consensual experiences.

The victim may indeed lie about his/her age.

There may be evidence of sexual trauma, untreated
STDs or frequent pregnancies/abortions.
Interview

Individual reports an excessively large number of
sexual partners, especially when it is not ageappropriate.

Individuals under the age of 18 may express interest
in, or may already be in, relationships with adults or
older men.

Victim may use lingo or slang relating to the
individual’s involvement in prostitution.

There may be evidence of controlling or dominating
relationships.

Victim may not know when or where last medical
examination was done.
Key Questions for HT Determination
 Can you leave your work or job situation if you want?
 When you are not working, can you come and go as you
please?
 Have you been threatened with harm if you try to quit?
 Has anyone threatened your family?
 What are your working or living conditions like?
 Where do you sleep and eat?
 Do you have to ask permission to eat, sleep or go to the
bathroom?
 Is there a lock on your door or windows so you cannot get
out?
Physical
Assessment
Physical Assessment

May or may not be wearing inappropriate clothing.

May have tattoos on the neck and/or lower back
i.e. a man’s name or initials (most often
encountered with US citizen victims).

Other types of branding – i.e. cutting or burning.
Physical Assessment

Malnourishment or generally
poor health

Signs of physical abuse –
unexplained injuries or signs of
prolonged abuse including
injuries / bruises at different
stages of healing:
- Bruises
- Black eyes
- Burns
- Cuts
- Broken bones
- Broken teeth
- Multiple scars (including
from electric prods)
Physical Assessment

Evidence of a prolonged infection that could easily be
treated through a routine physical/check up

Addiction to drugs and/or alcohol

Urinary difficulties, pelvic pain, pregnancy, or rectal trauma
caused from working in the sex industry

Chronic back, hearing, cardiovascular, or respiratory
problems as a result of forced manual labor in unsafe
conditions

Poor eyesight and/or eye problems due to dimly lit work sites

Serious dental problems
Documentation
• Written records should document the time between
the abuse and the time the exam is conducted as well
as describe the patient’s demeanor.
• Patient’s words should be set off in quotation marks;
should not use phrases implying doubt, such as
“patient alleges.”
• Should not summarize the patient’s report.
• Should not refer to the perpetrator of the abuse with
terms that might be used by the patient, such as “my
boyfriend.”(18)
Documentation
When observations conflict with a patient’s statement,
healthcare providers should record reasons for the
differences.
For example, if a patient’s injuries are consistent with being
struck by an object but the patient reports falling down stairs this
should be recorded and medical providers should document the
specific elements of the injury that are consistent with the impact
of an object and inconsistent with a fall.
Long-term Sequelae
•
Post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
•
Persistent symptoms of increased arousal – i.e.
difficulty falling or staying asleep, irritability or
outbursts of anger, difficulty concentrating,
exaggerated startle response
•
Intense distress/reactivity to internal/external cues that
symbolize or resemble aspect of traumatic event
•
“Hyper-vigilance” or paranoia, fear, anxiety,
depression, submission, tension and/or nervousness
•
Trauma bonding
Long-term Sequelae
•
Severe depression
•
Suicidal ideation
•
Spiritual questions
•
Feelings of being mentally broken
•
Multiple symptoms resulting from untreated STDs
•
Sexual dysfunction
•
Difficulty establishing/maintaining healthy relationships
Trauma Informed Care
• Aims to avoid re-victimization.
• Appreciates many problem behaviors began as
understandable attempts to cope.
• Strives to maximize choices for the survivor and control
over the healing process.
• Seeks to be culturally competent.
• Understands each survivor in the context of life
experiences and cultural background.
Key: Not “what is wrong with you?” But, “What happened
to you?”
Victim Outreach
Complex Issue
Societal Problem crossing multiple systems:

Healthcare Providers

Law Enforcement

Legal System

Child Protective Services

Juvenile Detention Centers

Jails / prisons

Safe Houses

Faith-based outreach / rescue
Trafficked Persons and Their Needs
There are four general areas of victim needs:
1. Immediate Assistance: Housing, food, medical, safety,
security, interpretation and legal services
2. Mental Health Assistance: Support, Counseling
3. Income Assistance/Employment: Cash, Living
Expenses, Training
4. Legal Status and/or Other Legal Assistance: T-Visa,
Legal Services
Immediate Danger - Actions
• Make sure you are not putting yourself or the individual in danger take care to notice who is around when you are asking questions or
providing resources. If you think someone is listening, STOP!
• If you suspect that the victim is in immediate danger, call 911.
• Call the police and ask to be transferred to the human trafficking
detective on duty.
• Indianapolis Trafficked Persons Assistance Program 24-hour hotline:
1-800-928-6403
(operated by the Julian Center).
• National Human Trafficking Resource Center Hotline:
1-888-3737-888 or Text Be Free: 233733
(operated by Polaris Project).
• Child Abuse Hotline:
1-800-800-5556
(operated by Indiana Department of Child Services)
Intermediate Actions
• Present outreach / shoe cards and/or hotline
numbers to the victim. Give this information
directly to the victim and only when he/she is
alone.
• Complete Human Trafficking Report for IPATH
(located at end of Screening Tool) and forward
to Indiana Attorney General’s Office.
• Call the National Human Trafficking Resource
Center (NHTRC) to report the incident:
1-888-3737-888
Ongoing Challenges
• Hidden nature of trafficking
• Isolated nature of confinement
• Victim’s unwillingness, fear, inability to come forward
• Use of the internet to “recruit”
• Lack of awareness
• Difficulty to prove “force, fraud or coercion”
• Stereotypes and misconceptions
• Trauma bonding means victim may try to protect
trafficker
• Lack of appropriate services available to serve victims
My next steps:
 What will I do differently now?
 Who will I tell about this issue?
 When will I implement new protocols in my
clinical practice?
 Fill out reminder sheet
 Fill out evaluation
