Synopsis

This opportunity will assist OVC-funded multidisciplinary anti-trafficking task forces and teams (MDTs) and legal service providers by offering specialized training to ensure successful outcomes for victims of human trafficking, as defined by 22 U.S.C. § 7102(11). Applicants should propose approaches that strengthen Enhanced Collaborative Model (ECM) task forces, MDTs, and legal service providers’ capacity to identify and serve victims, conduct victim-centered investigations, and successfully prosecute traffickers.
