What is Child Trafficking?

Child trafficking is when children are recruited through force, deception or kidnapping, and transported within their country or across borders in order for them to be exploited. Most countries in the world are involved – they may be a source of trafficked children, a place where they pass through, or a destination for these children.

Myth: Human trafficking is another word for human smuggling.

Reality: Smuggling and trafficking are two different crimes. Both are Federal crimes in the United States. While smuggling requires illegal border crossing, trafficking may not. Human trafficking involves commercial sex acts or labor or services that are induced through force, fraud, or coercion.

Myth: Real victims of trafficking will ask for help or assistance and willingly self-identify as a victim of a crime.
