As defined in the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000, the legal definition of “severe forms of trafficking in persons” is:
a) s*x trafficking in which a commercial s*x act is induced by force, fraud, or coercion, or in which the person induced to perform such an act has not attained 18 years of age; or b) the recruitment, harboring,
transportation, provision, or obtaining of a person for
labor or services, through the use of force, fraud or coercion for the purpose of subjection to involuntary servitude, peonage, debt bo***ge, or slavery. At the BHTC, our passion is to bring awareness, education and action in order to fight the heinous crime of human trafficking. Through our committees, speakers and outreach activities, we are able to make a difference in our community.
