International Travel Awareness & Safety

WORKSHOP OVERVIEW

The risk to young people traveling outside and within the United States is real. But unlike what you see on television and in movies, not many people are available to help if the unthinkable occurs. The one saving grace is that there are practical, real, and simple steps one can take to avoid, prevent, and stop oneself from being a victim of any type of trafficking.

André Salvage and Associates has designed a class especially for teens and young adults of all genders who are traveling overseas for vacation or school. This class will share what parents can do and what those who are traveling can do to prevent this crime from happening to them.

WORKSHOP OUTLINE

External Awareness

• How predators and kidnappers pick their victims.
• How to move, dress, and talk to show that you’re not a victim, a challenge, or someone who fits the profile.
• Latest information on human trafficking, on human working, and sex trafficking
• Safety measures while traveling that don’t interrupt your pleasure of being on vacation.

Assertiveness
