January 7 - Risk Factors (Training Subcommittee)

1/7/2020

0 Comments

 
When we think about what puts someone at risk for human trafficking, it’s not enough to consider individual risk factors - we also have to consider what risk factors are present at the interpersonal, environmental, and societal levels. Below is an ecological framework created by researchers studying the commercial sexual exploitation of children. It depicts risk factors at each ecological level, presents the systems potential victims interact with, and the policies that impact them.
While this framework is specific to sex trafficking of minors, similar frameworks are helpful when thinking about the risk factors contributing to the sex and labor trafficking of individuals of all ages.
