What’s in it

This bill directs the commissioner of public safety to establish a human trafficking task force to investigate human trafficking (trafficking) in the state, collaborate with the office to combat human trafficking, identify current services available in the state to victims of human trafficking, develop information and materials available to the public to educate members of the public on ways to provide assistance to a person who may be a victim of human trafficking, and report on findings and make recommendations in the report submitted to the general assembly.

Read the full explanation

The required members of the task force are specified in the bill. The bill requires the commissioner to provide the findings and recommendations of the task force to the coordinator of the office of human trafficking for inclusion in the annual report submitted by the office to the general assembly by November 1.
