Outreach Materials That Illustrate Trafficking in a Variety of Venues

3/6/2019

 
Inspired by existing materials created by MOSAIC to depict domestic work, farm labor and sex trafficking, the Training Subcommittee enlisted in the help of an illustrator to create specific comic-book-like illustrations depicting human trafficking in a variety of other venues, such as in nail salons, restaurants, massage businesses and traveling sales crews. 

The following illustrations depict human trafficking in:
a. Nail Salons
b. Massage Businesses
c. Restaurants

The scenarios depicted in these situations attempt to portray common ways in which folks can be trafficked in these settings and are free of any language so that they can be interpreted visually by folks with any literacy level. Feedback for all of these materials was provided by survivors of human trafficking or workers who work within these settings.

The materials include the following:
1)            Typical thoughts about why a male survivor of sex trafficking might hesitate to come forward – and an example of sex trafficking to acknowledge survival sex among youth.
2)            Typical reasons a male survivor of labor trafficking might feel they cannot leave.
3)            A small palm card describing that human trafficking can happen to men to distribute directly to men

Direct Outreach Materials for Youth

11/8/2017

 
​The following youth outreach flyer was created by the Cook County Human Trafficking Task Force’s Training Subcommittee. This outreach material draws on empowering language to show youth that there can be a unique way forward, even in times when it seems like there is no way out. It is meant to be given directly to youth when it is safe to do so. It can also be posted in the common areas of offices so that youth can see the information and take down the number anonymously themselves, without actually taking the flyer back with them.
