Domestic Violence & Human Trafficking: Working Together to Identify Trafficking and Connect Survivors with Resources
Sexual assault and domestic violence agencies are increasingly encountering and serving human trafficking survivors. We will discuss key indicators to help identify trafficking survivors and talk through case studies illustrating how domestic violence, sexual assault and human trafficking may intersect. We'll highlight specific challenges trafficking survivors may face in the shelter system and share trafficking-specific resources. By working together, anti-trafficking and DV/SA agencies can better meet survivors’ needs, including their unique legal needs.
