The Hidden Face of Human Trafficking in Arkansas | TomCast with Candice Martin

Human trafficking isn’t just a far-off crime—it’s happening here in Arkansas, often in ways that will shock you. In this powerful TomCast episode, Tom Wilkins sits down with Candice Martin, Anti-Human Trafficking Specialist, to expose the realities that many don’t want to talk about. Candice reveals: Why trafficking often looks different than what Hollywood portrays. How familial trafficking—parents exploiting their own children—is far more common than people realize. The signs to look for in your community (massage parlors, strip clubs, runaways, even within “normal” homes). Why both women and men, especially young teens, are vulnerable to being targeted. How cycles of poverty, addiction, and generational trauma fuel this crisis. What resources, hotlines, and specialists are available in Arkansas to support survivors. This conversation is raw, eye-opening, and necessary. If you care about protecting children, families, and communities, this is a must-watch. 👉 Don’t forget to like, share, comment, and subscribe to help spread awareness.
