Spotlight on Child Welfare and Human Trafficking
In 2012, the U.S. Department of State estimated that 27 million men, women, and children around the world were victims of human trafficking. These victims are often from the most vulnerable populations, including children involved with child welfare. CBX looks at the intersection between child welfare and human trafficking, highlighting Federal Government efforts to combat the issue, a training and technical assistance center offering services to professionals who may encounter victims, and a handbook for enhancing the child welfare response to human trafficking.
