Care, Safety, and Self-Determination: Effective and Holistic Human Trafficking Prevention
While past approaches to preventing human trafficking have relied heavily on “carceral solutions” (such as increased policing, arrest, and incarceration), a holistic approach to preventing human trafficking can take a broader view. What are the societal beliefs that normalize the exploitation of labor and maltreatment of children? What do communities need to be safer and better cared for? What do our families and neighbors need to reduce the risk of trafficking? What are the drivers of human trafficking, and how can we find opportunities to create meaningful, lasting change?
Join some of the authors of “Care, Safety, and Self-Determination: A Public Health Approach to Preventing Human Trafficking” to learn more about what drives trafficking and how we can prevent it, and for a meaningful conversation about why these approaches are grounded in community and not just abstract theory.
