CEU Course Description
Human trafficking is a global health concern that involves forcing individuals to be exploited against their will. This type of exploitation occurs in all geographic regions and can impact a range of individuals, so it is increasingly likely that occupational therapy providers in any setting will encounter survivors of human trafficking. Occupational therapists are well-suited to treat individuals who have survived any type of human trafficking due to their expertise in addressing physical, cognitive, and psychosocial dysfunction. Therapists have the training necessary to help them identify, support, and provide education to individuals affected by human trafficking. This emerging practice area is considered yet another domain where occupational therapy professionals can make a positive impact.
CEU Course Objectives
