*Citation: The US Department of Justice found that between 2008 and 2010, children of color accounted for 77.8% of child sex trafficking cases they investigated, compared to the 48% of nonwhite in the general population, according to the US Census during this time. In Connecticut, where Love146’s US Survivor Care program is based, 73% of all child sex trafficking referrals to the state’s Department of Children and Families in 2018 were children of color, compared to 43% of children being nonwhite in the Connecticut state general population at that time.
