dc.description.abstractWe identified the need to develop a set of core competencies to help guide health systems to more adequately support individuals who may be at risk of trafficking or individuals who have experienced trafficking. At that time, we never imagined publishing these core competencies during a pandemic. Although the complexities and challenges in health systems across the world are greater than ever, we believe these core competencies could not be more timely. In fact, the pandemic may cause even greater risk to individuals who are already at risk of trafficking or to individuals who have experienced trafficking. As we describe in these core competencies, these individuals may also experience other types of victimization, making it even more critical that our health systems are appropriately responding to this population’s potential needs. We’ve outlined in detail which actions individuals, organizations, researchers, and educators need to take to provide these individuals with proper care and attention.en_US
