Anti-Human Trafficking Notice
Human trafficking is a form of modern-day slavery. Victims of human trafficking are young children, teenagers, and adults. Thousands of victims are trafficked annually across international borders worldwide. Many of these victims are trafficked into the State of Florida and other states throughout the United States of America. Victims of human trafficking also include citizens of the United States and those persons trafficked domestically within the borders of the United States. Victims of human trafficking are subjected to force, fraud, or coercion for the purpose of sexual exploitation or forced labor. While many victims of human trafficking are forced to work in prostitution or the sexual entertainment industry, trafficking also occurs in forms of labor exploitation, such as domestic servitude, restaurant work, janitorial work, sweatshop factory work, and migrant agricultural work. Traffickers use various techniques to instill fear in victims and to keep them enslaved. Some traffickers keep their victims under lock and key. However, the most frequently used practices are less obvious techniques that include isolating victims from the public and family members; confiscating passports, visas, or other identification documents; using or threatening to use violence toward victims or their families; telling victims that they will be imprisoned or deported for immigration violations if they contact authorities; and controlling the victims’ funds by holding the money ostensibly for safekeeping. To prevent and stop this horrible trend, perpetrators of human trafficking should be penalized for their illegal conduct and that the victims of trafficking be protected and assisted by this state and its agencies.
We abhor and actively fight against human trafficking, and should you meet, know, or hear of anyone who is, directly or indirectly, involved in human trafficking, or maybe a victim of human trafficking, we urge you to immediately report your concerns to the authorities.
