The Public Services Committee further recommends that the content and all activities of these advertisements be subject to the review and approval of Oakland County Corporation Counsel prior to production. The Public Services Committee finds this effort to be a valuable tool for enacting recommendations in the Committee’s Gun Violence Report. Specifically the following action item: “Adopt effective policies to not sell violent video games to individuals who do not meet the ratings requirements printed on the games.” Public Service Announcements will encourage purchasers to be more aware of the ratings system and content of products they are purchasing.

Children are especially vulnerable; and WHEREAS human trafficking comes in two forms: • Sex Trafficking – the exploitation of a person for labor commercial sexual activity through force, fraud, or coercion. Victims of sex trafficking are often forced to engage in prostitution, exotic dancing, or pornography. It is important to understand that any sexually exploited child is a trafficking victim, even if there is no force, fraud, or coercion. • Labor Trafficking – the exploitation of a person for labor or services through force, fraud, or coercion. Labor trafficking victims are often forced into domestic servitude, agricultural work, restaurant work, or sweatshop factories; and WHEREAS children are especially vulnerable to sexual exploitation and human trafficking: • 40 percent of human trafficking cases involve the sexual exploitation of a child. • Between 100,000 and 300,000 children are at risk for sexual exploitation in the U.S. with an average age of 11 to 14 years old. • It is estimated that 76 percent of transactions for sex with underage girls start on the Internet; and WHEREAS human trafficking is the second-largest and fastest-growing criminal industry in the world - and it's devastating the lives of thousands of women and children right here in Michigan and Oakland County. Michigan is a source, destination and transit state for human trafficking that has victims, U.S. citizens and foreign nationals, who are trapped in forced labor and sexual exploitation; and Commissioners Minutes Continued.
