Course summary: This multidisciplinary course examines labor trafficking in the United States through prosecutorial, clinical, law enforcement, child welfare, and survivor-informed perspectives. Participants will explore the dynamics of labor trafficking, including recruitment, control tactics, barriers to leaving, systemic inequities, and factors that increase vulnerability to exploitation. The course addresses commonly missed indicators of labor trafficking, the psychological and behavioral impacts of trauma, and trauma-informed, victim-centered approaches to identification, engagement, intervention, and referral. Contributing factors such as poverty, housing instability, racism, xenophobia, economic inequality, language barriers, immigration vulnerability, and limited labor protections that shape trafficking risk and access to assistance will be discussed. Through expert presentations, survivor-informed discussion, case reflection, and multidisciplinary panel dialogue, participants will examine appropriate professional and community responses, strategies to reduce retraumatization, cross-sector collaboration, and available resources. The course emphasizes practical, ethical, evidence-informed responses that promote safety, autonomy, trust, and coordinated care for individuals impacted by labor trafficking.Course learning objectives:
1. Identify at least three indicators, recruitment dynamics, control tactics, or barriers to leaving associated with labor trafficking that may inform social work assessment, engagement, and referral.
2. Describe at least three psychological, behavioral, or relational impacts of labor trafficking and explain how trauma-informed, victim-centered approaches can reduce the risk of retraumatization during professional engagement.
3. Analyze how at least three systemic or structural factors may increase vulnerability to labor trafficking and create barriers to accessing services.
4. Apply at least three trauma-informed and multidisciplinary response strategies that promote safety, autonomy, trust, culturally responsive practice, appropriate referral, and coordinated care for individuals who may have experienced labor trafficking.Diversity statement:This course incorporates diversity, equity, and inclusion by acknowledging that race, ethnicity, culture, gender, age, language, immigration status, socioeconomic conditions, and structural inequities shape vulnerability to labor trafficking, access to services, and professional responses.
