Other signs may include malnutrition, inflicted injury or a history of abortions.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Greenbaum stated that the American Academy of Pediatrics (which covers 67,000 members) recommends that pediatric care providers and staff adopt trauma-informed, culturally sensitive approaches to working with this vulnerable population.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPhysicians can play a vital role in offering critical services to vulnerable and exploited children and adolescents,\u201d Dr. Greenbaum said. \u201cAn important first step is to develop trusting, respectful relationships with patients who need to feel safe and supported.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to the news release, nearly 5 million children around the world were forced into labor or sexual exploitation in 2021.<\/p>\n<p>International Labor Organization (ILO), as reported by <a href=\"https:\/\/healthnews.com\/news\/new-study-assists-pediatricians-with-identifying-trafficked-children\/\">Health News<\/a> Over 27.5 millions people were forced into work, the majority in the Asia and Pacific regions and the Arab States. More than half of those forced into labor were children.<\/p>\n<p>Health News reported U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) officials said traffickers use technological advancements, which expose victims to severe dangers \u2014 many of whom are children runaways from low-income families that have created a bond with their aggressor after being persuaded with money, food, clothes, and attention.<\/p>\n<p>Health News reported that between 14,500 and 17,500 victims are trafficked into the United States every year. Meanwhile, the number of U.S. criminals charged with human trafficking has increased 84% (729-1,343) in the period 2011-2025.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The American Academy of Pediatrics updated a clinical report last week about assisting pediatricians with identifying children and teens subjected to human trafficking.
