In this episode, the ladies discuss what human traffickers do to groom their victims. They also talk about red flags to look for and how to handle a potential human trafficking situation.

What's the typical profile of a human trafficker? How do they determine who to target? What vulnerabilities do they look for and what techniques do they use to capitalize on those vulnerabilities? We need to understand that grooming can happen anytime, anywhere. It can even occur unknowingly within our own homes and families. Many times, traffickers aren't the ones doing the grooming; they can utilize associates or even other victims to groom new victims. Also, you'll learn why students going off to college are already naturally primed to be targets of human trafficking.

What should you do if you notice something strange or suspect human trafficking activity? What red flags might indicate suspicious activity? And how do you respond in a way that's safe for both you and the victim?

Get the answers to all these questions and more on this episode of the Tusc Against Trafficking Podcast.
