Human Trafficking Awareness In Pharmacy

Healthcare settings can be critical points of contact for people experiencing trafficking, yet warning signs are often missed. Research indicates that 28 to 88 percent of trafficking victims may encounter a healthcare provider during exploitation (National Library of Medicine). This course helps pharmacy professionals recognize potential perpetrators and victims, understand warning signs, and respond appropriately when concerns arise. You will learn how to approach situations safely, avoid escalating risk, and connect individuals with appropriate support. The focus is practical: recognize the signs, respond appropriately, and know what to do next.
