Human trafficking rarely involves kidnapping and restraining. In reality, victims are often controlled by fear tactics and threats rather than physical restrictions. #EndHumanTrafficking #HumanTrafficking #ACTAlberta #webelieveyou #westandwithyou #mondaymyths

This threat, which exists to some extent in all trafficking situations involving foreign nationals, becomes a precision weapon in the hands of traffickers controlling temporary work visas tied to a single employer. #EndHumanTrafficking #ACTAlberta #Factfriday

Labour and sex trafficking often intersect, and some of our clients experience both. #EndHumanTrafficking #HumanTrafficking  #labourtrafficking #sextrafficking #ACTAlberta #webelieveyou #westandwithyou #listentosurvivors #mondaymyths #YYC #YEG

A common misconception about labour trafficking is that it only happens in illegal, non-registered businesses. This is not true. Many of our clients come from legal, registered businesses that many of us frequent without knowing it.  #labourtrafficking #mondaymyths

Traffickers are often employers, family members, friends or romantic partners. #EndHumanTrafficking #humantraffickingawareness #HumanTrafficking  #labourtrafficking #sextrafficking #ACTAlberta #westandwithyou #factfridayswithact #factfriday #listentosurvivors #yyc #yeg

It's a common myth that in Alberta, most - if not all - human trafficking is for the purposes of sexual exploitation. Labour trafficking is a serious problem and is present in more than half of the cases referred to ACT. Get the facts at https://t.co/N5fJBQPiSE #actalberta

Human trafficking can occur internally or internationally. The most common form of trafficking in Alberta is internal, where trafficking occurs within our country’s borders. #factfriday #humantrafficking #endhumantrafficking #labourtrafficking #sextrafficking #ACTAlberta

Today is #BellLetsTalk day. So, let’s talk about mental health. Mental health is our number one priority at ACT Alberta for our clients and employees. We must recognize and care for the mental well-being of survivors and ourselves. #listentosurvivors #mentalhealthmatters

Many temporary foreign workers fall victim to various kinds of exploitation and are often left without fully understanding their rights and obligations as migrants in Canada. #ACTAlberta #humantraffickingawareness #youarenotalone #EndHumanTrafficking #newcomerlegalcommittee
