3rd Annual Legislative Breakfast: Addressing Human Trafficking in NJ

Join the Global Center on Human Trafficking along with experts, lawmakers, policymakers, and professionals with lived experience as we examine New Jersey's response to the mental health crisis faced by survivors of human trafficking upon exiting their situations.

The discussion will address critical challenges, including the lack of training and education on human trafficking, the shortage of both short-term and long-term mental health services, and the limited understanding of the vital importance of mental health services. These services are crucial for victims and survivors to ensure their long-term success in building new lives after trafficking.
