Description
Sex trafficking is a social justice issue, where college students are a vulnerable population. My key goal is: What support is given to college students and the community so that they are not in danger of being sex trafficked? I discovered that my overall awareness in creating training for higher education students was that I want to create a curriculum that could be a solution to injustice. This course that I developed for higher education students was created to provide an educational awareness and prevention of sex trafficking that promotes safety in terms of relationships, jobs, and the internet. Creating a curriculum that is aimed at students could help shift choices and decisions that lead to harm. I personally feel led to train and empower individuals on this topic, where students may also choose to take a stand on this social justice issue, as well.
To understand human trafficking, it is necessary to recognize that sex labor is not just a commodity. Sex labor exposes a person to abuse and trauma. Although many enter the sex industry for monetary gain, the consequences are not worth the cost of the traumatic experiences.
I am hopeful that this course can make an impact in terms of education, revealing to others the importance of recognizing and understanding the signs, preventative measures, hotline resources, and ways in which one may partake in the solutions to sex trafficking.
Who Should Attend!
- By providing education to those most vulnerable to exploitation, I hope to provide an educational awareness and prevention of sex trafficking by creating a training for higher education students that promotes safety in terms of relationships, jobs, and the internet.
