<p class="MsoNormal">"We cannot – and we will not – allow jurisdictional challenges to stand in the way of investigations that need to traverse national borders. Investigators must be able to share lead information with each other directly and immediately,
and then be able to attain swift access to evidence they require to locate and apprehend those who victimize children – and to shut down their exploitative enterprises – before they are able to slip away. This Alliance presents a united effort – and a unique
opportunity – to address jurisdictional impediments and ensure that abusers cannot evade detection and prosecution."<span class="e2ma-style"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span class="e2ma-style"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"">A resource developed by the
<a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/125kn/lqlgrj/9gqo5d">National Center for Homeless Education</a>. The Center has developed a brief entitled “<a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/125kn/lqlgrj/p9qo5d">Sex Trafficking of Minors: What Schools Need to Know to Recognize
and Respond to the Trafficking of Students,</a>” and it provides a wonderful starting point for collaboration between schools and CACs and MDTs on this issue.
</span></span><span style="font-size:9.0pt"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span class="e2ma-style"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"">The brief notes at the outset that “[y]outh experiencing homelessness are particularly vulnerable to being targeted for victimization through trafficking;
because of this, educators working with homeless and other at-risk students should be well informed about the issue and effective ways to respond within schools.”
<a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/125kn/lqlgrj/51ro5d">Id</a>., p. 1. But the brief also notes that it is not just homeless students who are at risk, and states that “[w]hile it is true that any child or youth can become a trafficking victim, some form of
vulnerability tends to be the common thread among trafficking victims.” <a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/125kn/lqlgrj/luso5d">
Id</a>., p. 2. </span></span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif""><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span class="e2ma-style"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"">The authors are careful to note what is well-known to us, but not so obvious to those outside the field – that “anyone can be a trafficker, including
someone with whom a youth has had no previous contact or relationship, frequently the victim knows the trafficker. Traffickers are often family members; family friends; or “boyfriends” who initially pretend to love and provide for the youth, but later, through
overt force or psychological manipulation, prostitute the youth.” <a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/125kn/lqlgrj/1mto5d">
Id</a>., pp. 1-2.</span></span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"">

<p class="MsoNormal"><span class="e2ma-style"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"">Of particular importance for school personnel is the list of warning signs of involvement in sex trafficking. Some of the indicators listed include:</span></span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"">

<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span class="e2ma-style"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"">Throughout the document, the authors emphasize that, while school personnel may be the front line in terms of recognition and reporting, they are
not trained or equipped to be first responders. The brief emphasizes that “[s]chool personnel never should attempt to confront a suspected trafficker or rescue a suspected victim. Doing so could put the safety of the confronter/rescuer and the victim at
risk.” <a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/125kn/lqlgrj/x7uo5d">Id</a>., p. 1. </span>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span class="e2ma-style"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"">Instead, schools and school personnel are encouraged to take the following three steps:</span></span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"">

</span></span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif""><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span class="e2ma-style"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"">This is where CACs and MDTs can step in and play a critical role. You can assist with training on recognition, response and reporting. You can
assist in developing protocols; and you can assist in developing a trafficking prevention curriculum. And there is no need to reinvent the wheel – the brief offers resources for each of the suggested steps, including information regarding the McKinney-Vento
Homeless Assistance Act, which is “the primary piece of federal legislation related to the education of children and youth experiencing homelessness….”
<a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/125kn/lqlgrj/tswo5d">Id</a>., p. 6. Pursuant to this Act, “every State Department of Education must designate a State Coordinator for Homeless Education (State Coordinator) and every school district must designate a local
homeless education liaison (local liaison).” <a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/125kn/lqlgrj/9kxo5d">
Id</a>. The Coordinator and the liaison should work together with the district and the community of agency professionals to create policies and procedures around responding to trafficking.</span></span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"">
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span class="e2ma-style"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"">Right now, according to the
<a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/125kn/lqlgrj/pdyo5d">Polaris Project</a>, “an estimated 100,000 children are traded for sex in the United States each year.”
<a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/125kn/lqlgrj/55yo5d">Id</a>., p. 3. This is a crime that is vastly undercounted and continues to grow. But we can help to stem the tide, if we work together with partners from across our communities, including and perhaps
especially educators. As the brief points out, “[g]iven the regular interaction between students and educators, school personnel are positioned uniquely to recognize changes in behavior and appearance that may be indicative of trafficking involvement.”
<a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/125kn/lqlgrj/lyzo5d">Id</a>., p. 2. So I encourage you download this brief, and share it widely with your team and your colleagues – particularly those in the schools.
