From the Associate Attorney General: Supporting Law Enforcement’s Anti-Human Trafficking Work

Human trafficking is a crime that exploits and endangers some of the most vulnerable members of our society and causes immeasurable physical and psychological harm.

Both labor and sex trafficking impact every racial and ethnic group in the United States, but research suggests they disproportionately impact Black, Latino, Indigenous, and Native American persons; Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders; and other persons of color.
