Human Trafficking of Adolescents in America teaches a culturally sensitive, ethical approach to working with homeless and runaway youth who live on the street and become sex and labor trafficking victims, as well as those who are living at home and going to school - trafficked by family or boyfriend or the neighbor next door.
The course teaches how to ethically identify and support trafficking victims regardless of where they are encountered - in schools, in the ER, at the local laundromat or pharmacy, on the street corner, the back alley, or 'hidden in plain sight.'
The course explains the criminal and abusive nature of trafficking by perpetrators, the situations in which youth become lured into being trafficked, and the reasons why they find it difficult to extricate themselves from their controllers. Controlling factors include alcohol, drugs, homelessness, hunger, fear, and the necessity of engaging in survival sex to feed themselves.
Critical issues include teaching traumatized youth how to remain safe on the street while still controlled by their trafficker, how to obtain medical and social support services which are required to survive and eventually escape from the trafficking situation, and how to plan escape from the perpetrator when support plans are in place.
<br> <br> This course is divided into three sections (i.e., three Study Guides). Each Study Guide has a quiz, and all three quizzes must be passed in order to earn the CE Certificate for this course. <br><br>
