Locating Human Trafficking Resources CA

By Donna Phillips


While the slave trade involves adults and children, most often there are fewer adults. As such, most human trafficking resources CA are aimed towards younger individuals. Still, there are local and national organizations which work to counsel adults effected by the sex industry or slave trade in North America.

For, most often those working in the human trafficking industry are under the age of 18. In fact, there are more than 20,000 children which are currently working as labor and sex slaves in the United States. Most often, even if caught, it is only the masters who see justice and not the individuals or couples who have sold children into the trade. Until this changes, there can be no change for as long as children are provided, the problem will continue.

These local and national organizations play a vital role whether working to save these individuals, or to provide counseling once a slave has found freedom from a master. For, many of these children have never known love or family as were either taken at birth, or at a very young age. In fact, the Dr. Phil and other television talk shows have recently highlighted young women who had been born into the trade.

For, those being held captive and forced to work in the area are often exposed to a number of abuses. These can include emotional abuse, child pornography, drugging, exploitation, false imprisonment, torture, starvation, assault and rape among others.

The issue of suicide is one of the main reasons organizations providing counseling to those whom have escaped have been created. One such organization was created by a woman who grew up in the slave trade and finally after much hard work, found her freedom. Most often, anyone who finds a way to escape must also find a new identity and much akin to the witness protection program build a new and different life.

While a few have escaped these bonds, others still remain in the system without the capability of doing so. In many cases, the slave masters will send in a different person to attempt to get a child to escape, then when the child attempts to do so, punishment is given in the way of beatings or deprivation. After which, the child becomes leery of trusting anyone, even someone from a valid organization.

While some boys have been brought into the system, most often to teach the girls about sex, statistics show that the trade is 80% female, whether applying to adults or girls. As such, it is often female children whom are abducted or sold into the system. Whereas, at times the slave masters will bring in sons to work in the industry whether with or without consent of the male child.

As such, it is up to these organizations and those involved with the lost and missing to try and rescue these children. Although, without the help of the public also speaking out against these crimes and taking action, especially if seeing something out of place, there remains little hope for the salvation of those lost in the system.
