Human trafficking is one of our country’s largest growing – and most heinous – crimes. To help increase awareness of this crime and learn how to recognize and report it, we wanted to make sure you had some of our newest (and as always, free!) resources available at: https://www.dhs.gov/blue-campaign/library.

You can download, print, and share our resources within your building or community, at events, or on social media. Some of our newer resources include:
• “Second Look” Public Service Announcement
• “What is Human Trafficking“ Infographic and Animated Video
