Ethan Levine, Cast, and David Smith, Mercy Lab Foundation. Cast Briefing Note. (2023)
Human trafficking can have long-term effects on survivors’ mental health. Additionally, many of the conditions that make people vulnerable to trafficking, such as poverty and discrimination, can also have long-term effects on mental health. One of the most common outcomes is Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). This briefing note explores the impact of Cast’s Community Case Management services on identifying & addressing PTSD among trafficking survivors.
