Myth Versus Fact: Human Trafficking

By MKR on January 21, 2025

By Dena Miller — Coordinator of Events, Interns, and Volunteers at Family and Community Resources

Human Trafficking has become a common theme in popular movies and TV shows. But is what we see on TV an accurate representation of the human trafficking we find in our communities? Not really. Because January is National Human Trafficking Prevention Month, this is a perfect opportunity to confront some of the myths that impede the ability of some survivors to find the support and assistance they need.

  • Myth – All trafficking involves sex.
    • Fact – Human Trafficking is defined as the use of force, fraud, or coercion to get another person to provide labor or commercial sex. It is often referred to as modern-day slavery. Although we are more aware of sex trafficking, it is widely believed that labor trafficking is more common and vastly underreported.
  • Myth – Only women and girls are victims of sex trafficking.
    • Fact – Men and boys, particularly those in the LGTBQ+ community, are vulnerable to traffickers as well.
  • Myth – Trafficking only occurs in illicit industries.
    • Fact – Cases of trafficking have been reported in construction crews, restaurants, cleaning crews, and more.
  • Myth – Victims are kidnapped and trafficked by strangers.
    • Fact – Trafficking does not typically begin with acts of violence. Most survivors report that they were manipulated and coerced into the trafficking by people they knew, including friends, spouses, and even their parents.
  • Myth – Trafficked individuals cannot escape because they are being held against their will.
    • Fact – The truth is more complicated than that; some have been manipulated to the point that they do not realize they are being trafficked; some are too afraid to leave; and some don't think they have the resources they need to leave.

These myths highlight why community education is so important. There are dedicated advocates who are ready and willing to help survivors start a happier and safer future, they just need help finding them. With your help, we can connect those in need with those willing to fight for their safety in 2025 and beyond.   

If you think you know someone who is being trafficked, you can reach out to the Trafficking Awareness and Prevention team at Family and Community Resources, the Plymouth County Human Trafficking Task Force, or call the National Human Trafficking Hotline at (888) 373-7888.
