Human Trafficking in the United States

You are here: Home / Safety / Human Trafficking in the United States

May 27, 2019 by Adam Smith

Human trafficking in the United States is a real epidemic. Most people in the United States probably never think about trafficking happening into the United States, well they should because it happens in every state and it’s getting worst. In fact, it’s a billion dollar industry worldwide. Yup, we said billion. According to the International Labor Organization, Human trafficking can see profits on a global scale of almost 150 billion and out of that 99 billion are from sexual exploitation.

Types of Trafficking:
  • Sex trafficking
  • Labor trafficking
  • sex and labor

Human trafficking can happen anywhere at any time, not just overseas

A lot of people think human trafficking happens overseas, and it does, but what they don’t know or understand is that this kind of criminal activity happens here in the United States, and the numbers are rising to alarming rates. Not only does it happen in the states, but it’s also happening in every state.

Below are facts and figures that come from the International Labor Organization website. These figures are startling.

  • There were an estimated 40.3 million people involved in modern slavery (2016)
  • 24.9 million in forced labor
  • 15.4 million forced into marriage

To break this down this means that there were 5.4 victims for every 1000 people of modern-day slavery around the world. These numbers are astonishing to think that these many people are victims of trafficking.

How do the United States look in terms of human trafficking. The below data will shed some light on the statistics and problems we face with this epidemic.

According to Human Trafficking Hotline, the below are the worst states in the United States in human trafficking cases that are reported by states.

This data is from 2018 and reflects human trafficking cases that have been reported by state to the Human Trafficking hotline.
