Description of original award (Fiscal Year 2020, $750,000)

Funding through this program supports direct services to victims of sex trafficking and labor trafficking, as well as for efforts to increase the capacity of communities to respond to human trafficking through the development of interagency partnerships, professional training, and public awareness activities over a three-year project period. United Against Human Trafficking will use OVC funding to support an expansion of their direct service program to include comprehensive, long-term case-management. CA/NCF.
