Human Trafficking of People with Disabilities

Wednesday, October 25, 2023, 10:00 AM EDT - 1:00 PM EDT

The world's largest minority group is people with disabilities, and this populations experiences crime, including human trafficking, at far higher rates than their counterparts without disabilities. Yet people with disabilities are often left out of programming, education, and services.

Many service professionals also report not feeling comfortable or equipped to work with people with disabilities, despite the reality that they will likely interact with people with disabilities regularly. This presentation provides an overview of disabilities , an introduction to human trafficking, and guidance on how to interact and service human trafficking victims who have disabilities.
This class meets the DC Key Public Health Priorities criteria for DC licensees.

They can enhance their leadership, consulting and mediation skills, as well as these skills in their clients. And facilitate change that comes from the client (inside out vs. outside in).

This training will address ethical applications of life coaching techniques practiced by licensed clinicians.
