Despite the serious and long-term consequences for victims as well as their families, communities, and society, efforts to prevent, identify, and respond to these crimes are largely under supported, inefficient, uncoordinated, and unevaluated. We worked with [the IOM](http://www.iom.edu/Reports/2013/Confronting-Commercial-Sexual-Exploitation-and-Sex-Trafficking-of-Minors-in-the-United-States.aspx) to help illustrate the effects of this in a video as well as talk about what can be done to stop exploitation and trafficking of minors based on [their latest report](http://www.iom.edu/Reports/2013/Confronting-Commercial-Sexual-Exploitation-and-Sex-Trafficking-of-Minors-in-the-United-States.aspx). ## Share - [ ](http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://www.lemonly.com/work/confronting-commercial-exploitation-and-trafficking-of-minors-in-the-us&p%5Btitle%5D=Confronting%20Commercial%20Exploitation%20%26%20Trafficking%20of%20Minors%20in%20the%20US) - [ ](https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https://www.lemonly.com/work/confronting-commercial-exploitation-and-trafficking-of-minors-in-the-us&title=Confronting%20Commercial%20Exploitation%20%26%20Trafficking%20of%20Minors%20in%20the%20US) - [ ](https://www.pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https://www.lemonly.com/work/confronting-commercial-exploitation-and-trafficking-of-minors-in-the-us&media=https://www.lemonly.com/general-uploads/Work/sddefault.jpg&description=Confronting%20Commercial%20Exploitation%20%26%20Trafficking%20of%20Minors%20in%20the%20US) - [ ](mailto:?body=Check%20this%20out!%20https://www.lemonly.com/work/confronting-commercial-exploitation-and-trafficking-of-minors-in-the-us&subject=Confronting%20Commercial%20Exploitation%20&%20Trafficking%20of%20Minors%20in%20the%20US) --- ## You might also like [ ![Data Indexing Fundamentals Explained - MongoDB](https://d2xoo2expjpog9.cloudfront.net/generalUploads/Work/260528_MongoDB_Lightbulb-Video-Series-Indexing_VID_Work-Thumbnail.jpg?mode=crop&pos=center-center&q=98&f=webp&c=2a7df858&v=6c4fc2ce636e105125115dc89335a4775500456be0fb0aee06526b084007cc3f) ](https://www.lemonly.com/work/mongodb-indexing-fundamentals) [MongoDB](https://www.lemonly.com/work?client=mongodb)[Data Indexing Fundamentals Explained](https://www.lemonly.com/work/mongodb-indexing-fundamentals) [Video](https://www.lemonly.com/work?category=video) [ ![Lemonly Explainer Video](https://d2xoo2expjpog9.cloudfront.net/generalUploads/Home/250513_Lemonly_HomepageVideo_Thumbnail_HomepageVideo_Thumbnail_Var2_WorkPage_1200x795.png?mode=crop&pos=center-center&q=98&f=webp&c=d809aa1e&v=b31f307ac6dedb8dbbc600ab3466c93f08448cd999a3d9d862bfb71733ce1dfb) ](https://www.lemonly.com/work/lemonly-explainer-video) [Lemonly](https://www.lemonly.com/work?client=lemonly)[Intro to Lemonly: Home of the World's Best Infographics](https://www.lemonly.com/work/lemonly-explainer-video) [Video](https://www.lemonly.com/work?category=video) [ ![](https://d2xoo2expjpog9.cloudfront.net/generalUploads/Work/210830_Avail_RecruitingVideo_Static-01.jpg?mode=crop&pos=center-center&q=98&f=webp&c=b3c7fcaf&v=5b811efaed6f524c06c6a39b87181a428e32ecffc40aa844ce51a642372a990b) ](https://www.lemonly.com/work/avail-recruiting-video) [Avail](https://www.lemonly.com/work?client=avail)[Employee Recruiting Video](https://www.lemonly.com/work/avail-recruiting-video) [Video](https://www.lemonly.com/work?category=video)
