1 Sex Trafficking Trends and Treatment Dr. Dan Lustig Psy.D CAADC MISA II Vice-President of Clinical Services Haymarket Center
2 The Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 Characterizes sex trafficking as the Recruitment, harboring, transportation, provision, or obtaining of a person for the purposes of a commercial sex act, in which the commercial sex act is induced by force, fraud, or coercion, or in which the person induced to perform such an act has not attained 18 years of age. (Clawson, 2009) Every year 14,500-17,500 victims are trafficked into the United States. Majority of these victims are females, are 25 years old or younger. The average age for female sex trafficking is between years if age. (USDOJ, 2011)
3 Characteristics Many assume these victims live or came from outside the borders of the United States; however, that is not the case at all. 83% of the victims are documented as US citizens; 26% if these are Caucasian and 40% are African American. Sex trafficking has now become the second most prolific crime in American (Woodward, 2012). Sex trafficking effects all socioeconomic levels(usdoj,2014).
4 Assessing for Major Risk Factors Age, poverty, a corrupt and violent environment, a history of childhood sexual abuse, unemployment or dissatisfaction with a job, a dysfunctional family home, and mental health problems such as identity issues and learning disabilities. Age is one of the risk factors that can make individuals more vulnerable. The younger the individuals are, the more impressionable, and naïve. Having a history of childhood sexual abuse is the most strongly determinant risk factor when it comes to predicting whether individuals will become sex trafficking victims. Most victims also come from low socioeconomic status. Gender inequality is more prevalent in the more ethically and culturally diverse regions- specifically, California, New York, Texas and Florida.
5 Assessing for Major Risk Factors cont 70-80% if the girls locked up for prostitution has been sexually molested or abused (Clawson, 2011). To avoid confusion or misunderstanding, there is a distinction between prostitution and sex trafficking that often inhibits an individual from getting treatment or reaching out for help. Prostitution is voluntary and does not necessarily involve a pimp, whereas sex trafficking is involuntary and involves a pimp and the use of force, fraud or coercion.
6 Assessing for Major Risk Factors Living in a dysfunctional family also means that the possibility of one of your parent s or siblings selling you to a pimp increase. About 25 % of all sex trafficking victims in America are sold to a pimp by an immediate family member. Children who do not feel safe and protected in their own home tend to believe that life on the street is better. About 90% of child runaways are approached by a trafficker within the first 48 hours and over 50% become a victim of sex trafficking (Woodward, 2012)

19 The Solutions Education of front line responders to be aware of the risk factors Recognizing the indicators of a potential victim or trafficking case, and be equipped to assist the survivor in receiving the most effective treatments and resources. Formalizing a standard national definition and check list that defines victimization so that victims will not be treated as criminals. Effective coordination of adequate services Prevention is a clear and promising intervention. Educating individuals on what sex trafficking is, the tricks that pimps use to lure them, the detrimental consequences of life as a victim, and the alternative paths they can choose instead.
20 Solutions Educating front line responders to the red flags(identification factors), and training them on the resources to help victims. General indicators for front line responders Lacks control over his/her schedule and/or money. Health concerns (HIV, pain, pregnancy). Signs of physical abuse that he/she does not want to discuss or tells inconsistent stories. Signs of addiction/abuse Has no personal belongings. Poor living conditions, Does not have family support, has been previously victimized, living with extensive security, monitored while on appointments, moved residences often, appears to have been coached how to speak.
