N2  - Sex trafficking has assumed serious proportions in India. Although India was the first country to adopt anti-trafficking interventions in its constitution (Suppression of Immoral Trafficking Act, 1950) and in spite of the fact that the country is a signatory to the United Nations Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons, Especially Women and Children, 2000, yet, the problem persists and thousands of females are trafficked every year. There is a serious lack of studies on antecedents of sex trafficking, as well as lack of interception model for prevention. In this paper, a model representing the dynamics of rescue/rehabilitation and retrafficking has been put forward. The distinct feature of this model is that it is grounded in the contextual realities of trafficking. It advocates for the creation of more personalized schemes to suit the individual needs for the rehabilitation, and reintegration. It espouses tailor made programs for rehabilitation, as 'one size' does not fit to all. The scope of the model is not limited to the Indian context; it could be generalized to other contexts also.
