Human Trafficking Awareness with Resources < Back Human Trafficking Awareness with Resources �� Putting an End to Human Trafficking �� Secretary's Office, PA Human Services RA-secretaryoffice@pa.gov via gmail.mcsv.net Fri, Jan 31, 12:45 PM PA DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES • JAN. 31, 2020 HUMAN TRAFFICKING PREVENTION Wrapping Up Human Trafficking Awareness Month with Resources Human trafficking can happen anywhere and to anyone. Sometimes it takes place at the hands of someone the victim knows. In Pennsylvania, state agencies and organizations are working together to put an end to human trafficking within the state and nationally. Human Trafficking is the most rapidly growing organized crime in the world. In 2016, 40 million people were victims of human trafficking. The National Human Trafficking Hotline reported 10,949 cases called in in 2018. In Pennsylvania, The Hotline receives 630 contacts regarding human trafficking in 2018, with 275 cases reported. These numbers are not indicative of the full scope of victims since not all cases are identified or reported. What is Human Trafficking? Adults and children can be trafficked or enslaved and forced to sell their bodies for sex. People are also trafficked or enslaved for labor exploitation, for example, to work on a farm or factory or in a house as a servant, maid, or nanny and receive little to no money for their work 10-16 hours every day of the week. The crime of human trafficking must involve the use of force, fraud, or coercion. PennDOT Response PennDOT is one of the first transportation agencies in the country to train employees to recognize the signs of a potential trafficking situation and how to report it to the authorities. To date, PennDOT has trained 564 driver license and welcome center employees, as well as almost 15,000 transit agency employees in human trafficking awareness. In 2018, PennDOT took the USDOT pledge to "Put the Brakes on Human Trafficking" and became a member of the National Transportation Leaders Against Human Trafficking initiative.

- Family Therapy w/Adolescents w/Depression: A Positive Biopsychosocial Approach Webinar WPIC PITT
Family Therapy w/Adolescents w/Depression: A Positive Biopsychosocial Approach Webinar WPIC PITT < Back Family Therapy w/Adolescents w/Depression: A Positive Biopsychosocial Approach Webinar WPIC PITT All clinical and research professionals, students, and trainees as well as interested family members and individuals with mental illness. Working with the adolescent population has always been a challenge for clinicians. Given the developmental issues (striving for independence from the family of origin), adolescents are often reluctant to engage in being a part of the family therapy process. The adolescent’s inclusion in family sessions frequently becomes a “battle” bringing the “power struggles” of the home life into the therapeutic arena. As the number of adolescents with depressive disorders and also para-suicidal and suicidal behaviors, the clinician has become more aware of the adolescent’s impact on the family system. This workshop will look at some concepts and issues in the effective use of family treatment with adolescent depression and suicidality. The focus will be placed on understanding the concept of the “reciprocal influence” between the mental illness and the family system. A four-step process for intervening with families will be presented.
