There are many myths about human trafficking, what it is, and how it happens. Joining the podcast to help break things down and give us a look at this issue is Shelby Mitchell, Prevention Specialist/Victim Advocate at Family Services of Northeast Wisconsin. We look at the hiddenness of trafficking, tactics of traffickers, data on trafficking, and how we can be more aware of how to prevent trafficking from happening.
