In September 2018, the National Human Trafficking Training and Technical Assistance Center hosted a convening on behalf of the Office on Trafficking in Persons and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Office for Civil Rights and Civil Liberties. The objective of the convening was to pull together a variety of human trafficking experts and disaster response experts in order to learn about the intersection between the two, share best practices, identify gaps, leverage existing resources, and develop an outline for a multisector tool focusing on holistically protecting individuals from postdisaster trafficking. These are the minutes to the convening.

These recommendations were developed by fellows of Class 6 of the Human Trafficking Leadership Academy (HTLA), a fellowship organized by the National Human Trafficking Training and Technical Assistance Center and Coro Northern California. A team of allied professionals and survivor leaders worked together to respond to the following question “How can communities assess and respond to risk factors among migratory families in order to reduce vulnerabilities and prevent labor trafficking?”

The HTLA fellowship is funded by the Office on Trafficking in Persons (OTIP) in consultation with the Office on Women’s Health (OWH) at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The recommendations and content of this report do not necessarily represent the views of OTIP, OWH, or HHS.

The National Human Trafficking Training and Technical Assistance Center hosted a 90-minute webinar that explored new tools and research for outreach, identification, response, and risk reduction strategies for foreign nationals and migrant workers, not only in the agricultural industry, but other industries that are also high-risk for trafficking. This webinar was moderated by Jenna Novak and included Gonzalo Martinez de Vedia (Buffett-McCain Institute Initiative to Combat Modern Slavery), Makini Chisolm-Straker (Mount Sinai Hospital), and Julissa Ponce (United States Committee for Refugees and Immigrants) as speakers on the topic.
    
At the end of the webinar, participants will be able to:

• Identify person-centered approaches to outreach among foreign nationals who have experienced labor trafficking in the agriculture industry.
• Explore new research and tools for identifying potential labor trafficking and risk reduction strategies.
• Discuss ways to collaborate with community agencies that serve migrant populations.
