abstract="The original Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act of 2000 (P.L. 106-386) defined human trafficking as   (A) sex trafficking in which a commercial sex act is induced by force, fraud, or coercion, or in which the person induced to perform such an act has not attained 18 years of age; or (B) the recruitment, harboring, transportation, provision, or obtaining of a person for labor or services, through the use of force, fraud, or coercion for the purpose of subjection to involuntary servitude, peonage, debt bondage, or slavery. (§ 103[8][A-B])   This legislation established that any minor used in a commercial sex act is a victim of trafficking, regardless of whether their actions were allegedly voluntary (Finklea et al., 2015; Institute of Medicine [IOM] & National Research Council [NRC], 2014). Domestic minor sex trafficking (DMST) is the commercial sexual exploitation of U.S. children and youth. DMST victims experience a range of harmful sequelae, as seen in Table 1 (Ark of Hope, 2019; Child Welfare Information Gateway, 2017; Sapiro et al., 2016; Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration [SAMHSA], 2014; Shared Hope International, 2020; U.S. Department of Justice, 2020)...
