Trafficking of Aboriginal women and girls / by Red Willow Consulting Inc. ; Yvonne Boyer and Peggy Kampouris ; prepared for Research and Analysis Division, Community Safety and Countering Crime Branch,...: PS18-8/2014E-PDF

"The trafficking of Aboriginal women and girls is the focus of this study, particularly the involvement and methods of recruitment by family and gang members. From October 2013 to February 2014, 76 interviews were completed, mostly by telephone, with front-line organizations, service organizations, subject matter experts and law enforcement officials. The focus was on the Central, Eastern and the Northern parts of Canada. The research questions were open ended and were used as a guide for conversations. Questions generally focused on the vulnerabilities, characteristics, as well as the living and working conditions of Aboriginal women and girls who are being trafficked, the possible involvement of the families and gangs, the efforts of law enforcement and support agencies to address the issue, and identified gaps to providing services. Participants in the study almost universally focused their responses on human trafficking for the purposes of sexual exploitation”--Executive summary, p. 2.
