Human Trafficking billboard on Boardwalk in Atlantic City, NJ

Human Trafficking is a form of modern day slavery. It is a rapidly growing criminal industry second only to drug dealing and equal in scope to arms dealing.

Human Trafficking involves the use of force, fraud and/or coercion for the purpose of sexual exploitation or forced labor.

Contrary to popular belief under federal and state law, Human Trafficking does not require movement of people across borders.

Human Trafficking is a hidden crime that is seriously under-reported. Within the U.S., both citizens and foreign nationals – women, men, and children – can fall prey to traffickers who may threaten their lives and those of their families, isolate victims and/or make it impossible for them to escape.

Many victims trafficked into the U.S. do not speak or understand English and are unable to communicate to seek rescue.

Sex Trafficking -- Victims of sex trafficking can be found working for massage parlors, brothels, strip clubs, escort services and on the street. They may be children, teenagers or adults lured by false promises and ultimately forced into prostitution.

Labor Trafficking --Victims of labor trafficking can be found in many types of domestic and non-domestic situations. They work as nannies and maids, in sweatshops, janitorial jobs, restaurants, hair and nail salons, in street sales and on construction sites and farms. The victims are trapped into a cycle of debt, forcing them into involuntary servitude, debt bondage and slavery.
