Title: Hidden in Plain Sight: A Baseline Survey of Human Trafficking in Wisconsin
Summary: This report presents an analysis of human trafficking in the state of Wisconsin. Over 1,300 sexual assault and domestic violence service providers and law enforcement and district attorney offices were surveyed with a 30% return rate. Cases were reported in urban areas like Dane, Milwaukee and Racine counties as well as in rural central and northwestern counties. The majority of victims (85%) were adults and 75% were victims of sex-related crimes. Language differences between victims and law enforcement and service providers as well as a fear of deportation are barriers to victims seeking help, respondents reported.
