- The research calls for MMT programs to adopt a more patient-centered and trauma-informed approach, emphasizing the importance of empowering women in their treatment decisions to enhance effectiveness.

Human trafficking survivors often report exposure to many traumatic and PMIEs and given the complexities of trafficking exploitation, survivors may be especially vulnerable to moral injury. Despite this, no research has investigated experiences of PMIEs and moral injury in human trafficking survivors.
