Since 2020, the U.S. Department of Education has conducted a webinar series to address the growing response of America’s schools to child trafficking. The series draws attention to the important efforts underway in our nation’s education community to address both sex and labor trafficking.
Below is a list of events from the series. Simply click on an event title to access more information, including archived materials. As additional events in the series take place, this webpage will be updated.
