Hacks for Human Trafficking Disclosures

The need for support for human trafficking victims is rare in harm reduction organizations; however, you should think of having a plan just in case it does come up.

Many communities have existing resources for human trafficking victims, so please do some research to find out what those are in your community so you can add them to your plan.
