PositiveSingles is Committed to Fighting Sex and Human Trafficking
Every year, millions of men, women, and children are trafficked worldwide – including in the United States, Canada, and Latin America. Human trafficking involves the use of force, fraud, or coercion to obtain some type of labor or commercial sex act. Traffickers might use violence, manipulation, or false promises of well-paying jobs or romantic relationships to lure victims into trafficking situations and force them into labor or commercial sexual exploitation. The Counter Trafficking Data Collaborative (CTDC) is the first global data hub on human trafficking, with data contributed by organizations from around the world. It has reported 156,330 individual cases of human trafficking until 2022— and cases occurred in 189 countries across the world. According to the U.S. National Human Trafficking Hotline - Polaris, traffickers employ a variety of control strategies, the most common include physical and emotional abuse and threats, isolation from friends and family, and economic abuse. Some use their privilege, wealth, and power as a means of control while others experience the same socio-economic oppression as the victims. People of all gender and sexual identity, age, nationality, and ethnicity can become victims of this kind of crime, which occurs in every region of the world. Owing to such conditions, the situation is not pleasant and therefore remedial actions are needed. "Victims and survivors of trafficking and sexual abuse don’t always have a voice and if you can speak up for them, they will later be able to speak up for someone else."- JJ PositiveSingles has a zero-tolerance policy for sex and human trafficking.
