Human trafficking harms the body and spirit. Learn about the connection between human trafficking and Missing or Murdered Indigenous People (MMIP). Both human trafficking and MMIP victims may have been exposed to domestic and sexual violence, adverse childhood experiences, substance use, poverty, and homelessness. While human trafficking can happen to anyone anywhere, traffickers often exploit these vulnerabilities. During this virtual discussion, panelists offered insight and answered questions on the possible intersection between MMIP and human trafficking, provided resources for addressing the MMIP crisis, and shared actionable steps for involving the community.
