Sex trafficking is a form of modern slavery that involves illegally transporting individuals for sexual exploitation. It is driven by fraud, force, and coercion, with the majority of victims being under 18 years old. To identify and prevent sex trafficking, recognizing indicators such as disengagement, drug or alcohol dependency, excessive phone guarding, and abrupt behavior changes is crucial. Sex traffickers can come from diverse backgrounds and engage in various occupations. Preventive measures include establishing secure living environments, addressing vulnerabilities in healthcare interactions, reducing demand for commercial sex, and disrupting profits linked to trafficking. Helping victims involves offering financial and moral support, advocating, spreading awareness, and providing care for their physical and mental well-being. Overall, combating sex trafficking requires a vigilant society, preventive measures, and support for victims.
