Human Trafficking• Despite the large and growing prevalence of the problem, a
new survey commissioned by LexisNexis in collaboration with Polaris Project reveals that most Americans are not aware of the nature or extent of human trafficking. In fact, when asked to identify the best definition of the term “human trafficking,” nearly half of Americans could not do so (48%). Most respondents – nearly nine out of ten (88%) – were unaware that more than 10 million people are living in sexual slavery or some form of forced labor in the world today, while just one in five (22%) knew that human trafficking generates $30 billion or more in profit each year. “Human trafficking isn’t something that only happens to a few people in far-away countries, it’s happening right here in America, in New York City, in our backyards,” said Robert Rigby Hall.
