Description
Data is essential to understanding human trafficking patterns in the United States, and federal prosecutions data fills an important empirical gap in the existing data on minor sex trafficking. This presentation introduces federal prosecutions data developed and analyzed by Allies Against Slavery in partnership with Dr. Vanessa Bouche, overviews broad trends in minor sex trafficking illuminated by the data, and demonstrates compelling use cases for federal prosecutions data.
