TY - JOUR PY - 2022// TI - Unearthing historical trauma to advance health equity for survivors of human trafficking JO - HCA healthcare journal of medicine A1 - Woo-Cater, Sandy SP - 197 EP - 202 VL - 3 IS - 3 N2 - Description In the last decade, the public health field has grown a strong interest in responding to issues related to human trafficking. This specific concentration in healthcare has made efforts to ensure this work includes culturally appropriate tools to serve patients. While curricula to guide health professionals in areas such as cultural competency, cultural responsiveness, or cultural humility exist, historical trauma is not often integrated in the understanding of health outcomes for patients experiencing human trafficking. This paper asserts that advancing health equity for these patients necessitates a deeper historical perspective.
