Polaris

Polaris, one of the nation’s leading anti-trafficking organizations, created the National Human Trafficking Resource Center, offering a series of trainings and reference tools on many issues within trafficking. The National Human Trafficking Resource Center (NHTRC) recently published three resources for healthcare professionals about human trafficking. You can find them here:

A Recorded Presentation: this presentation is approximately 30 minutes and covers both sex AND labor trafficking.
An Assessment Tool
A Fact Sheet for clinicians

In addition, their latest 2015 report, Sex Trafficking in the U.S.: A Closer Look at U.S. Citizen Victims, addresses the particular health needs of the trafficked population. Polaris also operates a hotline, (888) 373-7888, that serves healthcare providers seeking resources for potentially trafficked-patients and trafficking victims seeking help.
