HUMAN SEX
TRAFFICKING
Human Trafficking Breakdown
Indicators of human
trafficking
Human Trafficking is a form of modern day
slavery where people profit from the
exploitation of others. Victims of Human
Trafficking can be men, women, or children of
all races and nationalities. Human Trafficking
takes many forms, but is most easily divided
into two types, sex trafficking and labor
trafficking.
• sex trafficking occurs when a commercial
sex act is induced by force, fraud, or
coercion, or when the person performing
the commercial sex act has not attained 18
years of age.
• labor trafficking occurs when an individual is
recruited, harbored, transported, provided,
or obtained for labor or services, through
the use of force, fraud or coercion, for the
purpose of subjection to some form of
involuntary servitude, or debt bondage.
Human Trafficking Facts

cannot consent to become enslaved.
Victims want to escape but cannot.
• There are over 27 million slaves around the
world-more than there have ever been in
human history
• Human trafficking is about a $32 billion
global industry
• Anyone is at risk for being trafficked
• It is estimated that 76% of transactions for
sex start on the Internet
• The average victim of human trafficking is
12 years old
• According to the US government, 100,000-
300,000 children are at risk of being
trafficked each year

Myths
Trafficking is not the
same thing as smuggling:
trafficking does not
require transportation or
border crossings
Trafficking does not require
physical force, physical
abuse, or physical
restraint—intimidation,
threats, and/or coercion are
used most frequently
Trafficking
does not
only affect
people in
the US
illegally
