The discussion revolves around the crucial work of the Human Trafficking Unit in Portland, focusing primarily on juvenile sex trafficking. Collaborative efforts with law enforcement agencies, the District Attorney's office, and dedicated advocates like Robin, a survivor-turned-advocate, are highlighted. The team strives to combat trafficking, support victims, and hold offenders accountable. They emphasize a victim-centered approach, prioritizing safety and trust-building with those involved in the sex trade. Despite the challenges and prevalence of underreporting, the unit remains committed to addressing the community livability issues associated with trafficking while advocating for long-term support and resources for survivors.
