The IACP introduces the TraffickSTOP (Signs to Observe and Prevent) toolkit―a human trafficking identification and prevention training curriculum for high school students throughout the United States.  

The TraffickSTOP program was designed for school resource officers (SROs) or other police personnel to facilitate the program in high schools, guiding students through active discussions and skill-building activities surrounding the issue of human trafficking to increase awareness and prevent victimization. Once completed, students are encouraged to share what they learned with their school and community.    

The TraffickSTOP toolkit includes 12 meeting plans, posters, and resources to implement the program. A self-paced online training provides coaching to facilitators on how to best deliver the curriculum.  

This project was built in collaboration with the National White Collar Crime Center (NW3C) and with support from the Office for Victims of Crime (OVC).
