Trafficking of children involves the recruitment, transportation, transfer, harboring, or receipt of children for the purpose of exploitation. Children can be forced into many forms of slavery, including labor and sex trafficking, which are the two primarily kinds we see throughout our programs. Runaway and homeless youth, victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, war or conflict, or social discrimination are frequently targeted by traffickers.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1457618221729{margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 50px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”What is Human Trafficking?” font_container=”tag:h2|text_align:center” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]
