Many patients seek dental care because of underlying abusive situations. If you suspect abuse or trafficking while providing oral healthcare, do you know if it is reportable? Do you have the necessary resources to guide those seeking help and escape? By building trust, honing clinical evaluation skills, and knowing where to turn for support, you can make a significant difference in a patient’s life.

In this webinar course, you can discover how to make an impact. Learn to identify the signs and take the first step toward providing support and resources for patients who may be experiencing human trafficking or abuse.
