Signs & Indicators

Signs & Indicators of sexual exploitation and trafficking.

Many organizations have a list of the signs and indicators of potential sexual exploitation and sex trafficking victims. We hope to compile these lists into a helpful infographic in the future.

IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER

Someone who is trafficked may not experience these signs and someone who is not trafficking may experience one or more of these signs. 

Spotting one these signs may not mean that someone is being exploited or trafficked, but seeing one should be a reason to be suspicious. The more signs you see, the more likely it is that this person is being controlled, exploited, and trafficked. - A message from Stop the Traffik
