Sex trafficking in the United States is a “serious public health problem” (CDC, 2019). Sadly, we are also global contributors to the problem of sexual exploitation of some of our most vulnerable citizens! Do you know of any of the “red flags” that we should be looking for as community health nurses to identify someone who has been coerced or forced as a sex worker through sex trafficking?
