Cast – Coalition to Abolish Slavery & Trafficking

Description of Services:

ARE YOU A SURVIVOR OF HUMAN TRAFFICKING?

Cast helps people who have been forced, threatened, or tricked into any kind of work, including commercial sex, by providing legal and social services.

You could be a human trafficking survivor if:

  • You were FORCED OR THREATENED TO WORK at any type of job and you could not leave it
  • You were forced to work to pay off a DEBT
  • Your IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS were kept from you
  • Someone FORCED, THREATENED OR COERCED you into working in the sex trade including street-based work, escorting, or online work. You were UNDER 18 and you engaged in the sex trade.

Human trafficking does not have to be physically restrictive and can look different for many different people. The law protects you even if you didn’t recognize that you were being controlled until later. Cast CAN HELP!

Any survivor of human trafficking, whether it’s labor or sex trafficking, a foreign national or a U.S. citizen, or an adult, youth, or a child can receive Cast’s services at no charge.
