If social workers are to assume a leadership role in ensuring and promoting human rights, they need to be knowledgeable about human trafficking and modern-day slavery and apply their tools and skills broadly and creatively, taking into account issues of culture, power, privilege, and oppression. This effort includes collaborating across professions; intervening in local, state, and national policy arenas as advocates and thought leaders; recognizing, assisting, and supporting victims and survivors; and galvanizing others to do so as well.

Learning Objectives:

• Understand the types and venues of human trafficking in the United States                      
• Identify victims of human trafficking in health care settings
• Identify the warning signs of human trafficking in health care settings for adults and minors
• Explore resources for reporting the suspected victims of human trafficking
  

This workshop will count towards the required human trafficking training for licensed health professionals. Approved for 2 Ethics CE for social workers by the Michigan Continuing Education Collaborative.

Presenters: Christina Faita, LMSW & Duane Breijak, LMSW

The workshop is free for NASW members, $25 for non-members. RSVP required to Abby Segal, LMSW at avivabatia@aol.com.
