Multiple studies have found that Planned Parenthood is a common clinical setting to which sex traffickers bring their victims. Survivors of human trafficking have reported significant contact with clinical treatment facilities, with Planned Parenthood clinics being mentioned most frequently. Victims often visit emergency departments, Planned Parenthood, and jails for care. Research shows that almost 30% of sex trafficking survivors have visited a Planned Parenthood affiliate, making these encounters an opportunity for intervention and identification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Survivors have revealed that Planned Parenthood does not ask questions and provides services free of charge, making it an attractive choice for sex traffickers. The clinic’s lack of follow-up and insufficient care have resulted in serious health consequences for victims, including infections and complications leading to surgeries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Despite being mandated reporters of suspected child abuse, Planned Parenthood has failed to identify and assist trafficking victims. Survivors have shared their experiences of visiting Planned Parenthood multiple times without receiving any help or intervention to escape their traffickers. These missed opportunities to provide support and save women and girls from abuse highlight the organization’s negligence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The evidence presented by survivors and research indicates that Planned Parenthood has become a favored clinical setting for sex traffickers. The lack of action and assistance from the organization has serious consequences for the well-being and safety of trafficking victims.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
