HART Data Summaries
HART is the Human Anti-Trafficking Response Team run by the CT Department of Child and Family Services. HART looks specifically at Domestic Minor Sex Trafficking and at Commercial Sexual Exploitation of Children so this data focuses exclusively on minors. Keep in mind that although this data shows trends, it does not give a full picture of trafficking/child exploitation in CT as it is limited to what people are able and know to report. If a data point is missing from a graph, that specific piece of data was not collected by HART.
