Among those most vulnerable to human trafficking are teens and young adults who are lesbian, gay, bisexual transgender, queer, intersex, asexual, and all sexual and gender minorities (LGTBQIA+). Because of physical, emotional, and sexual abuse in the home, and family rejection related to their sexual orientation and gender identity, a disproportionate number of LGBTQIA+ youth experience homelessness, unstable housing, food insecurity, criminalization, and involvement in the foster care system. Unstable living conditions put these youth at increased risk for human trafficking, particularly engagement in the sex trade.
