NOT HERE Presents: The Governor’s Summit on Human Trafficking
November 12 & 13, 2015
The Countdown: 95 days remaining
August 4th began our 100 day countdown leading up to The Governor’s Summit on Human Trafficking in Maine. Over these 100 days, we will be sharing a fact, a resource, or a perspective each day, to raise awareness, encourage discussion, and inspire action against injustice, both domestically, and globally.
Today’s Featured Fact: Healthcare providers can play a key role in identifying victims of human trafficking while they are in captivity.
In one study (The Health Consequences of Sex Trafficking and Their Implications for Identifying Victims in Healthcare Facilities) of 107 survivors, 87% of survey respondents admitted seeing a health care provider at some point while they were being trafficked.
Be a part of the movement that declares Not Here!
We invite you to like us on facebook, follow us on twitter, and share these resources in your social networks to help us raise awareness that yes, human trafficking DOES happen in Maine AND around the globe, and EVERYONE needs to be involved to stop it.
