Facts on Human Trafficking in Florida:
Florida: A Modern Slavery Hub

Florida is commonly known amongst law enforcement personnel to have one of the highest incidences of human trafficking in the country. In fact, Florida is commonly cited along with New York and California as being one of the top three destinations for trafficking victims in the United States. Victims of sex trafficking typically wind up in large cities, vacation and tourist spots, and near military bases, where the demand for sex trafficking is incredibly high. Additionally, labor trafficking victims are typically utilized in areas where there is a demand for unskilled labor, which is present in sectors such as seasonal agriculture, garment manufacturing, construction and domestic servitude. Florida’s economic climate, largely dependent on agriculture and tourism, renders it an ideal destination for human trafficking victims. Additional factors creating a high demand for victims of human trafficking include Florida’s eight military bases along with South Florida's geographical location, which makes it a strategic entry point for traffickers bringing victims from Latin America and the Caribbean into the United States. In fact, Miami International Airport is ranked as one of the top entry points in the United States for foreign human trafficking victims. Finally, the rich demographic composition of Florida, ranking third for the number of immigrants living within its borders, provides a steady supply of vulnerable victims for traffickers to prey on. From prostitution to indentured servants to migrant farm workers, Florida exhibits a uniquely high demand for traffickers to profit from.   READ MORE

These findings highlight the fact that there is significant room for public intervention on behalf of human trafficking victims. Although the forced labor and sexual exploitation of trafficking victims occurs behind closed doors, the victims exist in the same space as everyone else. Consequently, it is inevitable that community members run into victims of human trafficking as they go about the routine activities of their day. The staggering number of individuals who are encountered but not identified as victims shows that there is a significant gap that needs to be addressed by community members in order to abolish modern day slavery.
