SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Trafficking Happens Here: Human Trafficking Training for the Dental Professional
DESCRIPTION:WEBINAR: Trafficking Happens Here: Human Trafficking Training for the Dental Professional\nPresented by Ms. Kandice Swarthout\, RDH\, LPC \nHuman trafficking is a rapidly growing public health crisis in the United States and the fastest-growing commerce in the world\, with over 200\,000 minors at risk. Many victims are deceived and coerced into labor or sexual exploitation\, and approximately 80% interact with healthcare providers while in captivity. However\, many do not self-identify due to fear of retribution from their captors. \nDental professionals are uniquely positioned to recognize the signs and help intervene. This course equips clinicians to identify and report suspected trafficking\, understand key distinctions (including sex trafficking vs. sex work)\, recognize at-risk populations and apply trauma-informed care to support victims and connect them with resources. \nWhat will I learn in this webinar:\n \n\nDefine human trafficking\, including key types\, recruitment methods and populations at risk.\nDistinguish between sex trafficking and sex work\, and between trafficking and smuggling\, using legal and contextual criteria.\nIdentify clinical indicators and apply effective screening approaches to recognize potential trafficking situations and determine reporting thresholds.\nImplement appropriate reporting procedures in alignment with legal requirements and institutional protocols.\nApply trauma-informed care principles to support safe\, respectful interactions with affected individuals.\nLocate and prioritize local and national resources to facilitate appropriate referrals and support services.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKandice Swarthout\, RDH\, LPC\, brings nearly 30 years of dental experience and over a decade in mental health.
