SOME FACTS
Sex-trafficking involves the use of force, fraud, or coercion to obtain a commercial sex act.
Millions of men, women, and children are sexually exploited worldwide. Trafficking can happen in every community, and victims can be of any age, social status, race, gender, or nationality. Traffickers use violence, manipulation, false promises, and/or romantic relationships to lure victims into trafficking.
