Abstract
For her capstone project, Lina Karamali focused on issues of human and labor trafficking in California, specifically within the city of Salinas. Driven by a deep concern for the rise of human trafficking cases and statistics, Lina’s project examines legislative measures that have historically aimed to address this issue but with varying outcomes. Using Salinas as a critical case study, Lina demonstrates how anti-trafficking policies and laws can often overlook rural cities, like Salinas, that while not very populous, remain a hub of human trafficking activity. Through her research, Lina hopes to offer policy recommendations that may apply to places like Salinas, which share some commonalities with larger urban centers but also present challenges unique to smaller, rural communities that are agricultural and more isolated.
