TY - JOUR PY - 2010// TI - Reducing demand for human trafficking: a non-linear approach for developing capacity JO - Social work and Christianity A1 - Wolf-Branigin, Michael A1 - Garza, Sandra A1 - Smith, Michael A. SP - 424 EP - 436 VL - 37 IS - 4 N2 - As social service organizations develop capacity to address human trafficking, the foci remain preliminarily on linear approaches of prosecuting traffickers, providing emergency shelter, and forging service partnerships. The potential for change vis-à-vis grassroots organizing to reduce demand remains largely untapped. Building on The Salvation Army's initial efforts to serve trafficking victims-who lacked knowledge of available services, had difficulty accessing services and remained vulnerable to threats to themselves and their family-we suggest that demand reduction strategies be pursued as a complementary approach to address this vital social work issue.
