Human Trafficking (Case study)

In a 2- to 4-page paper, identify two opening exercises that you might recommend for a
group of adolescent girls who were victims of human trafficking.
Describe the exercises in detail so that another social worker would be able to implement
them.
Explain ways these exercises might be effective in creating a comfortable environment for
these teenage girls.

Support your rationale with the literature. For example, what does the literature say about
teenage girls who have been arrested for prostitution/human trafficking and who openly
discuss their experiences?
How do these exercises promote group cohesion and encourage these teens to talk
openly?
Group therapy is one of the most successful interventions for adolescents. This is
because of the nature of this stage of development and the need to belong to a group.
Hearing the stories of other teens and knowing that their experiences and feelings are
similar is very therapeutic. Another characteristic of the adolescent stage is a short
attention span, so the clinical social worker should tailor exercises that initiate and sustain
discussion for adolescents.
