Description of Health Care Training:
Across the United States, more than 1.4 million healthcare professionals are in a critical position to recognize and respond to victims of human trafficking. Yet, many of these frontline professionals are unaware that exploitation is occurring right in their exam rooms, emergency departments, and clinics. This course offers a unique, trauma-informed lens into how exploitation intersects with the healthcare system – helping professionals recognize the subtle signs that often go unnoticed. From emergency room visits to routine check-ups, trafficked individuals may seek medical care multiple times while in exploitation. This training empowers providers to become proactive forces in prevention and intervention.
