Trafficked individuals are likely to have been traumatized and stigmatized. This means that they have gone through difficult experiences, such as being taken from their homes, being forced to work or be involved in exploitation, and being subjected to physical and emotional abuse. These experiences can leave a deep psychological impact on a person, causing them to feel shame, fear, and a sense of being marked for life. They may also struggle with trust issues and feel stigmatized by society, which can make it difficult for them to recover from their experiences and rebuild their lives.
