Trafficking Victims Protection Act

The Trafficking Victims Protection Act is the United States’s most important tool in the fight against human trafficking and modern-day slavery. The act has expired—placing critical anti-trafficking initiatives at risk, such as support to law enforcement and services for survivors. The TVPRA must be renewed and getting Congress’ attention this year will be tough. Tell your Member of Congress that ending human trafficking is a national priority. Call Congress today.
