Trafficking is defined by The Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 as the recruitment, harboring, transportation, provision, or obtaining of a person for the purpose of commercial sex acts or labor or services using force, fraud, or coherence. According to the United Nations 2016 Report on Trafficking in Persons, women and girls make up 71% of all human trafficking.
