**When a trafficked child or adult sits across from you—whether in person or on a telehealth screen—you may be the only professional they’ll ever encounter who can recognize their silent plea for help. If you miss the signs, that moment may never come again.**

Every clinician holds the power to recognize and respond to trafficking survivors, yet too many go unseen. This training invites you to build the skills, insight, and confidence to meet one of the most urgent clinical challenges of our time.

**Dr. Mollie Gordon**, Associate Professor at Baylor College of Medicine and Medical Director of one of the nation’s first academic programs addressing the mental health impacts of human trafficking, brings unparalleled expertise to this training. With decades of work caring for vulnerable patients, leading national advocacy, and publishing research in this area, she offers a rare perspective at the intersection of psychiatry, trauma, and telehealth.

Her approach blends research, lived clinical cases, and trauma-informed best practices. Clinicians will not only learn definitions and risk factors, but also gain actionable strategies for applying telehealth models of care when working with trafficked persons, especially in settings where in-person access may be limited or unsafe.

**Topics include:** defining human trafficking and the legal standards that shape our clinical responsibilities; distinguishing trafficking from related issues such as smuggling; identifying clinical red flags across healthcare settings; understanding trauma and its long-term impacts on physical and psychological health; applying trauma-informed telehealth interventions; and navigating the barriers, benefits, and limitations of telehealth in reaching this population.

### **Key Takeaways:**

\- **Clarity on human trafficking:** Recognize the red flags, nuances, and misconceptions that often prevent clinicians from identifying trafficked persons in healthcare settings.
\- **Telehealth as a lifeline:** Learn how telehealth platforms can reduce barriers, improve continuity of care, and safely connect with vulnerable patients.
\- **Practical application:** Gain strategies for offering trauma-informed services to trafficked persons using telehealth models of care.

### **Why this course?**

\- **Critical responsibility:** With up to 88% of trafficked persons interacting with healthcare providers while actively being trafficked, clinicians cannot afford to overlook this training.
\- **Unmatched expertise:** Led by Dr. Gordon, a national leader in trafficking-informed psychiatry and telehealth, this course provides insights few others can.
\- **Actionable relevance:** Delivered by Telehealth Certification Institute, this CE course goes beyond theory—equipping you with concrete tools for immediate application in your practice.

### **Learning Objectives:**

\- Define Human trafficking and understand the clinical red flags of trafficking healthcare settings.
\- Review the goal of the anti human trafficking program and understand how these goals shifted to a telehealth platform during the covid pandemic.
\- Teach healthcare providers how to offer services to trafficked persons via telehealth models of care.

The stakes are high: every overlooked signal is a chance lost to intervene in the cycle of exploitation. This course equips you to see what others miss, to act with clarity and compassion, and to use telehealth as a bridge to safety and healing.

Enroll now to ensure you are ready when that critical moment arrives.

I completed the Telehealth Training. This training was very effective for me because it was self-paced. I was able to work at my own pace to fully grasp the information. In addition, the various graphics and explanations made retaining the information better for my learning style. I also enjoyed the small quizzes at the end that helped increase my understanding and application of the information. I will definitely recommend this course to other clinicians!
