Law Enforcement Awareness Training

Human trafficking is a hidden crime, and the first step to combating it is to identify victims so they can be rescued and help bring their perpetrators to justice. The Blue Campaign has developed awareness and training materials to help increase awareness and educate on the indicators of human trafficking.

DHS provides a web-based training course to law enforcement officials to train officers on recognizing human trafficking and responding appropriately.
