Professionals working with and serving communities at risk of human trafficking increasingly use public health strategies to establish evidence-informed, data-driven responses to human trafficking. “The Public Health Response to Human Trafficking: A Look-Back and a Step Forward,” published by Public Health Reports (PHR) and sponsored by the Office on Trafficking in Persons, expands the current evidence base and highlights the strengths of using a public health approach when preventing and responding to human trafficking. The authors in this supplement explore the efficacy of individual and communal public health interventions and describe the tools used by professionals and systems of care to respond to human trafficking
