Minors And Human Trafficking

The internet has created easier access into the personal lives of the minors. There are websites that make communication anonymous such as backpage.com. Traffickers can be anyone from friends to educated individuals. The high profit of this market makes the desire to make money more important than the human rights of the individual. Traffickers are robbing our youth of their childhoods. Minors sometimes do not realize that they are being trafficked until it is too late.

The minor child’s values and interests need to come into play while working on treatment. Since, they are the ones that have to learn to live with what was done to them. Survivors tell their story to help other people learn about this growing trend in trafficking people.
