Recognizing Signs of Human Trafficking for First Responders
Webinar recorded on May 27, 2021
Webinar Description
Retired Chief Daniels is the father of a daughter that has been missing since August 2013. Most Human Trafficking presentations only address what Human Trafficking is, the ever-growing number of victims, and a few victim’s stories. Chief Daniels’ presentation is unique in that he draws from and merges his fire service experiences with nationally recognized information and case studies.
Over 80% of Human Trafficking victims that have been rescued have stated that they encountered health care providers or EMS while being trafficked. Most First Responders have a misconception of both what Human Trafficking is and where it occurs.
Through lecture, diagrams, videos, and case photos, he takes the audience “into the weeds” of Human Trafficking where they will learn “why” they need to know the two types of Human Trafficking, how people become victims, why victims cannot leave Human Trafficking, recognizing the signs of Human Trafficking, what you, the First Responder, should do and who you should call.
