At Risk Populations: Human Trafficking / Domestic Violence

Description

Heinous crimes, right in front of you.  Can you spot it?  What will you do when you encounter one of their victims?  Will you ignore it too?

Human Trafficking is a billion-dollar industry and growing, with a focus on the forced slavery and prostitution of women and children. As shocking as it may seem, it is happening right here in America. It is happening in your city, at this very moment. It is happening right here in the State of Alabama.  That is why we need your help. EMS professionals must learn how to recognize and deal with these situations.  With your help, the victims can be rescued and their lives changed forever.
