Description:
International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) – Family-facilitated human trafficking or familial human trafficking is often inadvertently overlooked. On Tuesday, January 23, 2024, the IACP and the U.S. Department of Justice Human Trafficking Prosecution Unit, with support from the Office for Victims of Crime, is hosting a 90-minute webinar to discuss what familial trafficking looks like and how multidisciplinary human trafficking task force members can better identify and respond to this type of trafficking.
Familial trafficking occurs when a family member (a father or mother, sibling, grandparent, uncle, or aunt) or a guardian (a foster parent or intimate partner of the parent) facilitates the trafficking. This webinar will discuss why this type of trafficking is difficult to identify, how familial trafficking differs from other types of human trafficking, opportunities for identification and response, and ways to increase collaboration between systems such as child welfare, education, and healthcare.
This webinar is part of the OVC funded Enhanced Collaborative Model Human Trafficking Task Force Training Catalog.
