Human trafficking is an international and domestic public concern. As understanding of this social justice issue expands, awareness is growing that this horrific act impacts adults and children worldwide, including students in public schools. There is currently little guidance for school counselors or research specific to recognizing, preventing, and responding to human trafficking in schools. Through increasing the awareness of how to recognize and respond to human trafficking, school counselors, staff, and community members can work together to prevent trafficking in the schools and be better equipped to serve students who have been victimized by this crime. School counselors can play a role in prevention and education of this social justice issue.
