The situation of children survivors of sex trafficking in USA, (Freedom United, May 28th, 2019)


Right now, in  U.S.A. survivors of child sex trafficking instead of being treated as victims, are arrested for crimes they were forced to commit as a result of being trafficked . But New Hampshire gives  a crucial opportunity to stop this injustice. Newly tabled House Bill 189 in New Hampshire would extend protections for survivors of child sex trafficking tprevent them from being charged for “any other misdemeanor or non-violent class B felony, where the conduct was committed as a direct result of being trafficked.”If  this happens in New Hampshire, then will be more power to make this change in other states until all child survivors across the U.S. are protected.
