Trafficking of Minors on Tribal Lands

{Don’t forget to enter our anniversary giveaway here! Time is running out!}

One of my favorite speakers, Dr. Sharon Cooper, will be presenting the pediatric webinar for January on Tribal Forensic Healthcare: Trafficking of Minors on Tribal Lands. The session will be held January 15th from 3-4:30pm ET. As with all offerings through Tribal Forensic Healthcare, CEUs are available and CMEs have been applied for.

From the site:

Clinicians need further training regarding the three types of human trafficking, the medical problems associated with this form of exploitation and recognize that there is often a juxtaposition of labor and sex trafficking in tribal country.  In addition, there is a need to understand the unique vulnerabilities of Native women and girls who are victims of sex trafficking and the generational trauma inherent in this population
