N2  - Human trafficking was defined in the United States in 2000, with the Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPA). Studies demonstrate that clinicians are seeing trafficked persons and emergency departments (ED) are among their most frequented healthcare sites.<sup>,,</sup> These studies were of survivors reporting their healthcare experiences while being trafficked, some of which occurred before the TVPA; EDs have been serving trafficked persons as patients long before the government named the problem. This is not surprising. We care for those affected by all kinds of interpersonal trauma, including intimate partner violence (IPV), gun violence, elder abuse, and child maltreatment.
