The Intersection Between Prostitution, Human Trafficking, and Victimization Among Justice Involved Women

Don’t forget we have a giveaway going on this week. See all the details here.

The National Resource Center on Justice Involved Women has a webinar coming up next week: The Intersection Between Prostitution, Human Trafficking, and Victimization Among Justice Involved Women. The session will be held November 1st from 2-3:30pm ET.

From the site:

It is estimated that 90% percent of justice involved women have experienced some form of victimization in their lifetime. As a result of this trauma, women may engage in behaviors that are criminalized, such as drug use or prostitution, and may be less commonly seen as “victims” by the justice system. What’s more, their vulnerability may expose them to further victimization, trauma, and exploitation — such as human trafficking.

The NRCJIW, in partnership with the Center for Court Innovation, will conduct a webinar on November 1 to explore the nexus between prostitution, human trafficking, and victimization among justice involved women. The webinar will discuss strategies that justice system stakeholders can take to identify women who may be victims of exploitation and human trafficking, address their needs, and improve their response to these women.

Register now for this informative webinar to take place on Tuesday, November 1 from 2:00 – 3:30 pm Eastern.
