In our 10th podcast series, “Intersections in Health Care and Human Trafficking”, NAPNAP uses a multidisciplinary lens to explore the impact of human trafficking on children and adolescents. Human trafficking is a complex and pervasive issue which is best addressed by tapping into the skills and expertise across many disciplines and people. Forensics, police, legal, social work, research, and survivors of human trafficking all have a place in addressing human trafficking.

Our host for this series is Jason Spees, MSN, MaOM, APRN, L.Ac., FNP-C, Dipl. Ac. & C.H. Jason is a human trafficking educator and the chair of NAPNAP Partners Alliance for Children in Trafficking (ACT).

She serves on the Juvenile Council for the State Bar of Texas, the Federal Advisory Committee on Juvenile Justice Subcommittee on LGBTQ Issues, the Collaborative Council for the Judicial Commission on Mental Health, as an advisor to the Texas Judicial Council Subcommittee on Juvenile Justice, and the Board of Directors for the Campaign for Youth Justice. She graduated from Yale University and the University of Texas School of Law.
