Host Hospitals Needed: Orange County and Central Coast
HASC is still seeking host hospitals for workshops in the Orange County and Central Coast areas. If interested, please fill out the host form by Dec. 15.
Workshop Overview
Join fellow health care professionals for an immersive human trafficking learning experience that dives beyond the 101 of traditional workshops. Our facilitators will begin with a brief overview of these crimes and their health connections. You’ll then learn about the specific health impacts of trafficking, along with tools for identification and assessment including trauma-informed care principles, barriers to disclosure, screening tools and ways to handle documentation.
In addition, the workshop will cover the provider’s role in response and referrals. You will have the chance to apply your knowledge with peers through exploring case studies, as well as brainstorming policies and procedures that might be implemented in your own setting.
Human Trafficking: A Social and Racial Justice Issue
Our workshop leaders will use a variety of interactive learner-centric teaching and learning methods to engage learners. They seek to help health professionals understand this issue of social and racial justice. While human trafficking crimes ensnare people of all genders, cultures, races and backgrounds, they disproportionately affect people of color, LGBTQI youth and other marginalized groups.
Throughout the training, you’ll hear inclusive language and learn methods and processes that will empower you to understand and take into account victims’ well-being. You’ll also gain skills in assessing people across different backgrounds, inclusive of all skin types and pigments.
Who Should Attend?
This workshop is geared toward doctors, nurses, nurse practitioners, social workers, health care administrators (reception, patient check-in and check-out), community-based organizations and law enforcement officials. We encourage hospitals to share this opportunity with community partners such as law enforcement, clinics/neighboring hospitals, university/academic partners, nonprofit organizations and anyone else who may benefit.
