Keynote| Trainer| Certified Peer Support Specialist (SC) with Lived Experience of Trafficking and Houselessness.
Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) are disproportionately represented in human trafficking statistics. Here are some statistics that show the racial disparities in trafficking: Black youth Black children are more likely to be arrested for juvenile prostitution (child sexual abuse) than other racial groups, making up 53% of all arrests. Black girls are also more likely to be trafficked at a younger age. For example, in King County, Washington, 52% of child sex trafficking victims are Black, even though Black children and adults only make up 7% of the population. Black women According to a two-year review of suspected human trafficking incidents, 40% of sex trafficking victims were Black women. In Cook County, Illinois, 66% of sex trafficking victims between 2012-2016 were Black women. In Nebraska, 50% of people sold online for sex are Black, even though Black people only make up 5% of the population. The National Human Trafficking Hotline also reports that Latinos are disproportionately represented among human trafficking victims and survivors. The sources of these statistics are The Polaris Project, The Congressional Black Caucus Foundation, and Rights4Girls. #juneteenth #bipoc #survivorleaders
