There are an estimated 1.3 million female victims...; Search Snippet: ...Do We Go from Here?

On the surface, many formal barriers to women's equality have been eliminated, including laws of voting, marital property, employment, and education. Yet these laws are not fully and adequately enforced, thus the...; Search Snippet: ...Review 2015 Symposium: Women in Law an Introduction to the Women in Law Symposium Tracy A.

The focus of the legal profession, perhaps even the obsessive focus, has been on the process for determining guilt or innocence.

The Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPA) considers all youth less than eighteen years of age trafficking victims without a showing of force, fraud, or coercion.
