Healthcare Subcommittee
Our Mission
As healthcare professionals, the OCHTTF Healthcare Subcommittee aims to provide information & tools necessary for recognizing & responding to victims and survivors of human trafficking by utilizing a trauma-informed best practice approach to facilitate appropriate healthcare in a collaborative effort with the task force at large.
Action steps: We know survivors intersect with healthcare and often remain invisible due to multiple survivor and provider-related barriers. To improve healthcare outcomes for survivors, their families, and those vulnerable, we need to go beyond raising awareness. The pillars were designed to be implemented together, empowering healthcare professionals and institutions to create a comprehensive, evidence-based approach that closes gaps in recognition, response, treatment, and long-term care coordination.

Data
Collection
A comprehensive approach requires reliable data to ascertain the number of victims and survivors encountered within the healthcare system, their identification methods, the accuracy and effectiveness of staff education, the responses and services offered, and their efficacy both in the short term and over time. Gathering and distributing data are crucial to combating human trafficking. This process necessitates an organizational, institutional approach and collaboration with community organizations to track these incidents to improve long-term outcomes and service provision.
