Unmasking Human Trafficking: A Dentist's Call to Action for Victim Advocacy and Prevention

Let's Talk Smiles with Dr. Catrise Austin

As I, Dr. Catrise Austin, grapple with the shocking human trafficking allegations against P. Diddy, a vital figure from my New York past, I'm compelled to use my platform to confront a critical issue intersecting with the field of dentistry.
Throughout my career, I've formed special bonds with many individuals, including Mama Combs, Diddy's mother. These recent allegations have fueled my commitment to educate and empower my dental community. On today's episode of Let's Talk Smiles, we tackle the signs and responses to human trafficking within the confines of our dental practices, shedding light on a dark subject that's often overlooked in our industry.
Human trafficking is not a distant problem; it's a pervasive crisis that could walk through our office doors. That's why this episode is a rallying cry for my fellow dental professionals and our patients to become vigilant advocates for those trapped in these dire circumstances. We discuss how to spot potential victims, the importance of creating a safe space in our clinics for disclosure, and ways to take action. The conversation also extends an invitation to you—our listeners—to join the crusade against this heinous crime, uplifting human dignity and freedom. Your role in this fight could be the lifeline someone desperately needs. So tune in, subscribe, and together, let's transform our dental chairs into beacons of hope.
