Advancing Georgia’s Response to Human Trafficking
Human trafficking is a crime that affects every community, and it is happening in Georgia. The role of local governments is crucial in being able to effectively recognize, respond, and prevent this multifaceted issue and protect local communities. By covering the complete range of awareness to action, this class will allow participants to dive deep into the intricacies of human trafficking in all its forms, describe key elements of victimology, understand trafficking recruitment strategies, and recognize vulnerabilities in any community. Additionally, participants will understand Georgia’s anti-trafficking network and resources and how to get involved, as well as be empowered to advocate for innovative projects and solutions to combat this crime in their own communities. This class includes some content from the previous three-hour class, “Human Trafficking: Georgia’s Role and Response.” As this class has expanded and new content, those who previously took the three-hour class on human trafficking can take this class and receive credit towards a training certificate.
