The Life Cycle™ of Human Trafficking Training is designed to provide a comprehensive overview of anti-trafficking efforts and is aligned with best practice models following the model of Public Awareness, Prevention, and Restoration. Taught by experts in the subject matter, training provides professionals with the knowledge base to identify roles, best practices, and strengthen community efforts to combat human trafficking and exploitation.
Completion of training will build a foundation for professionals and the certificate will establish a baseline of expected knowledge among professionals.
Professionals are obligated to understand the Life Cycle™ of Human Trafficking, as well as victimization, in order to identify potential victims and identify their potential risks and protective factors.
Professionals working extensively with sex trafficking survivors hold legal and ethical responsibilities to provide appropriate services and identify strategies to overcome barriers to their treatment, including specialized and intensive training, such as trauma informed care.

All Trafficking Begins With Deception
The deception and manipulation skills traffickers often employ would make you think they have had advanced psychological training. They are so good at it, abduction into "the life" of being trafficked is passive. Victims almost always go willingly from a safe location to somewhere else, where they are trapped.
