Enduring Material: Human Trafficking Series

Enduring Material: Human Trafficking 101 & 201 is a certified continuing education course designed to equip the healthcare team with the critical knowledge and skills necessary to identify, differentiate, and respond effectively to human trafficking cases within healthcare settings.

Aligned with the TTUHSC CME Mission, this interprofessional activity focuses on addressing professional practice gaps regarding the widespread nature of both labor and sex trafficking, vulnerabilities in diverse populations, and reproductive, sexual, and mental health considerations.
