b"Episode 81: In today's social work podcast I spoke with Rebecca J. Macy. I started our conversation asking Rebecca how she became interested in identification of sex trafficking victims in human service delivery. Most of our conversation focused on how to identify and respond to victims of sex trafficking. We talked about the interdisciplinary nature of sex trafficking; how it involves representatives from law, medicine, social services, and how social workers can and should take the lead in coordinating efforts to help victims. And, as is the custom, we ended our conversation with resources for social workers, the Polaris project in particular. Rebecca was kind enough to send me a list of references and resources that I have posted to the socialworkpodcast.com website.\\n\\nIf you want to find additional references and resources, as well as a transcript of my conversation with Rebecca, please go to the Social Work Podcast website at socialworkpodcast.com.
