WARNING SIGNS OF POSSIBLE HUMAN TRAFFICKING:
- Does an entertainer arrive accompanied by another individual?
- Does that individual speak for or appear to maintain control over the entertainer?
- Does the entertainer seem fearful of that individual?
- Does the entertainer have difficulty communicating, whether resulting from a language barrier or fear of interaction?
- Does the entertainer appear to be underage or close to underage?
Use common sense, and contact the appropriate authorities if you suspect that someone is being trafficked.
