These training sessions are usually a part of teacher's in-service sessions. Similar tailored training is also provided for workers in the hotel and restaurant industries through Fierce Freedom's "Be Aware" program. Programming has also been developed and implemented with area municipal and county law enforcement agencies to provide officers with skills to identify victims of trafficking and to use existing laws and legal procedures to give victims opportunity to be removed from their situation. General human trafficking awareness training is also given to many community, church and social organizations to heighten awareness of the issue and to empower individuals to know what signs to look for in their communities and how to report suspicious activity. | $0 | $5,305 |
