Abstract
Human trafficking evolved from the legal and regulated slavery of the past and has likely been in existence throughout human history. Slavery was abolished in the United States in 1865, and slavery and servitude were prohibited globally through the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948 (United Nations General Assembly, 1948). Nevertheless, modern-day slavery has still thrived in the form of human trafficking. There have been many global and national efforts to combat human trafficking, including the UN Protocol to Prevent, Suppress, and Punish Trafficking in Persons and the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 (OMCTP). The Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 (TVPA) provided the U.S. government with the tools to address trafficking in persons both globally and domestically. It also established a framework for the government to fight against trafficking called the “3 P’s”: protection, prevention, and prosecution (U.S. Department of Justice [DOJ]).
