Reporting in...

The National Human Trafficking Resource Center (NHTRC) has kept data on phone calls since 2008. The first year (2008) has the total call volume to the Hotline; it is not broken down by state. The annual total nationwide is indicated on the chart, but not in the graph. From 2009 forward, the nationwide volume is broken down by state and then by type of call.

The NHTRC receives a variety of calls. They field calls from people who provide tips, ask questions and are victims. This graph indicates the total number of calls received from Arizona. The graph illustrates how many of those calls were trafficking cases or highly probable trafficking cases. It then specifies the number of calls that were specifically Sex Trafficking cases. The sex trafficking figures do not include calls that were “labor and sex trafficking

Here, I made a chart. And I graphed it.

  1. Hello Mamie,
    Thank you for sharing your internship experiences with us! After reading your blogs, I have to say that I respect the work you are doing with TRUST AZ, and how you are helping the cause against human trafficking. Human trafficking is a tragic reality that is difficult to imagine, but the fact of the matter is that it occurs all over the world and affects millions. Prior to reading your blogs, I had never heard of TRUST AZ, but it seems like this organization is extremely valuable to coordinating and assisting efforts in stopping human trafficking. Being involved in such an emotional problem must have its challenges, but I am sure it is very rewarding as well. I am glad to see that there are extensive efforts not just around the world but in Arizona as well to help reduce human trafficking and apprehend the monsters behind these activities. Overall, I appreciate you sharing your experience with us and for enlightening us on the subject of human trafficking.
