Human Trafficking Awareness Training Initiative

Human trafficking is a modern form of slavery. Help us put an end to it.

As an expansion of the 2019 “On the Road to End Human Trafficking” campaign, the Austin District launched the “Human Trafficking Awareness Training Initiative” to expand our knowledge of human trafficking, how it pertains to the transportation industry, as well as the proper methods of reporting suspicious activity.

The Austin District’s Human Trafficking Awareness Training Initiative is made possible through a partnership with the Office of Governor Greg Abbott and the Governor’s Commission for Women.
