The Vital Role of Social Workers in Assisting Human Trafficking Victims

Human trafficking remains one of the gravest human rights violations worldwide, affecting an estimated 27.6 million people globally in forced labor, sexual exploitation, and other forms of modern slavery, according to recent reports from the International Labour Organization. While governments, non-profits, and international organizations continue to combat this crisis, social workers stand at the front lines, providing critical support to victims as they embark on their journey toward healing and empowerment. Let’s explore how social workers play an indispensable role in aiding human trafficking survivors.

The United States has over 1.5 million non-profit organizations and a vast human services network. From child and family services to juvenile justice, veteran services, senior services, and mental health services, the United States has a plethora of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) dedicated to the betterment of humanity.
In recent years, as more caseworkers used technology to better serve their communities, digitization has grown in popularity among non-profits. If your NGO has yet to implement digital tools, read on to learn about the benefits of digitizing your operations.

Our world has become increasingly digitized, and this digital evolution didn’t just happen out of the blue. The digital revolution came about because we needed it. This stands true for almost all industries and organizations across the board, including social work.

Social work is one the most demanding fields, and in places like the US, where there is already a shortage of caseworkers, it’s crucial to bridge the gap between demand and supply using technology.

So, if you work for a government or human services organization, social services software is a must.

Any major move can be hectic, stressful, and lonely at times, but a move to another country and culture often takes those feelings to the next level.

You can create new lasting relationships here while maintaining the ones you've made in your home country.
