Human Sex Trafficking of Adults & Commercial Sexual Exploitation of Children

Human sex trafficking and the commercial sexual exploitation of children occurs in the U.S. and internationally. Human sex trafficking affects thousands of individuals annually. In 2018 there were 14,749 survivors of human sex trafficking. Human sex trafficking and the commercial sexual exploitation of children is a growing problem worldwide. The common age for a child to enter sex trafficking is 14-16 years old. "An estimated 24.9 million victims are trapped in modern-day slavery and of these, 4.8 million (19%) were sexually exploited."
