Educators and school counselors have the power to identify students involved in human trafficking as well as provide a trauma-informed environment that fosters the healing and rehabilitation of the survivors who return to the educational system.
This training will explore trends in Utah, recruitment tactics, vulnerability factors, and warning signs of exploitation. Attendees will also learn about the complexity of physiological, emotional and psychological needs that child survivors face in the aftermath of trafficking.
