Add to Survival Sex: The most reported cases are the youth that perform sexual acts for shelter or a place to sleep. Within the youth experiences of survival sex, 8.1% of females, males, and transgender are victims. Those who perform the trafficking include immediate family, boyfriends, employers, and strangers. Mprinella (talk) 16:27, 6 March 2018 (UTC)Madisson Rinella Those who are at a higher risk of survival sex include runaways, homeless, foster kids, and orphans.

Add to Identifying Victims: Those who are forced into sex trafficking range from young teens, women, and men. Minors under the age of 18 are considered victims due to the fact that it is illegal to perform sexual acts with those who are underage. Even though anyone can be forced into sex trafficking, the average age of victims ranges from the age of 11 to 14. Mprinella (talk) 20:12, 5 April 2018 (UTC)Madisson Rinella

Add to Prevention: Anyone is permitted to contact The National Human Trafficking Resource Center at 1(888)-373-7888. The hotline is beneficial since providers are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to assist victims and provide information for those who are at risk. There are a variety of ways in order to help prevent trafficking. One must be aware of the indicators to identify victims: abnormal behavior, poor physical health, lack of control, and work and living conditions. However, these signs may only be shown through a number of people - there may be more severe, serious indicators of sex trafficking. If you are a huge supporter in anti-trafficking, you can host events in the community to raise awareness of how people are targeted and who.

Who gets forced into trafficking? There is a numerous amount of fake business's that sound realistic that convince people to apply for the job. A lot of spa's or clubs have a reputation for holding an illegal business in order to attract their victims.

Myths: Many people are not educated well enough on the concept sex trafficking. Therefore, many myths have evolved which then confuses society on the severe-ness of sex trafficking. Many citizens are aware that trafficking occurs in foreign countries. However, in the United States alone, 22,191 cases were reported by the National Hotline in 2007. . For those who are forced into sex trafficking, they often do not go to authority to receive help. Reasons being; the traffickers may track down the victims' family and blackmail them or the victims may blame themselves for getting into the trafficking in the first place. In order for a victim to receive help, it is essential that they are able to gain a form a trust. Which may take a long time after it being broken from what they had to go through. Is human trafficking and human smuggling the same thing? No, they are not. The difference between the two would include that smuggling is an attempt of an illegal entrance of a person's "across international borders" and sex trafficking is "modern day slavery" where victims must perform sexual acts for money.

Forced Marriage: A forced marriage qualifies as a form of human trafficking in certain situations. If a woman is sent abroad, forced into the marriage and then repeatedly compelled to engage in sexual conduct with her new husband, then her experience is that of sex trafficking. If the bride is treated as a domestic servant by her new husband and/or his family, then this is a form of labor trafficking.[43] Forced Marriage: Approximately 140 million girls who are under the age of 18, which is about 39,00 a day, are forced into early marriages. Forced marriage, which is identified by the Untied Nations as “contemporary form of slavery,” occurs without full consent of the man or women and is associated with threats by family members or the bride/groom. Forced Marriage occurs not only in foreign countries but as well in the U.S.A. The service providers in the United States cannot successfully respond to the forced marriage cases because they lack clarity and a true definition of what a forced marriage is KristenKing (talk) 22:40, 24 April 2018 (UTC)Kristen King

Familial Trafficking: Parents who traffic their children are doing it to be in control and have power. Often times these families live in a respected community which is why it is so hard to detect. They may be thought of highly within their community but have outside resources assisted them in the trafficking process. It is rare that when trafficking occurs within a family that it is only done and encouraged by one family member. Grandparents, aunts and uncles, cousins, and siblings may be influencing the action. Children who are exposed to violent sexual acts at a young age grow up to believe it is normal and may commit these acts in the future. KristenKing (talk) 00:54, 25 April 2018 (UTC)Kristen King

Who Can Be Affected

Children

Over the years child sex trafficking has increased rapidly. There is an estimation of up to 300,000 children at risk for child exploitation through Sex Trafficking. Most of those estimated victims will be between the ages of 12-14 years old which is the same time most victims enter the sex trafficking trade. It has been seen that children from the ages of 1-18 years old can also be affected. Of those numbers, young women and girls make up 80 percent of the child sex trafficked victims inside of the United States. 25 percent of all child sex tourists around the world are United States Citizens. Children involved in sex trafficking can be used for jobs like working in hotels, in a house as a servant, on farms and even in war as children soldiers.These children can be exploited and traded into places all over the world due to trickery with a promise of schooling and a better life.

Often, traffickers will lure women in by promising money and even marriage, which often turns into a false bondage entrapping the women for good. Once trapped in the trafficking system it becomes nearly impossible for a woman to get out. Traffickers will confiscate all money and forms of ID of their victims and can even transport them to a country where they do not know any words in the native tongue. On average, a woman entering sex trafficking has a life span of about 7 years since she entered. Women can pass away from untreated illnesses, drug overdoses and HIV.
