Bill > HR2796

This bill, named the Frederick Douglass Trafficking Victims Prevention and Protection Reauthorization Act of 2025, proposes several key provisions to combat human trafficking, particularly focusing on preventing child trafficking and supporting trafficking survivors. The bill establishes two main programs: the Frederick Douglass Human Trafficking Prevention Education Grants and the Frederick Douglass Human Trafficking Survivors Employment and Education Program. The education grants aim to help local school districts develop prevention education programs, prioritizing areas with high child trafficking risks and partnering with anti-trafficking organizations and law enforcement. The employment and education program will provide comprehensive support for trafficking survivors over 18, including services like basic education, job training, life skills coaching, résumé assistance, criminal record expungement, scholarship support, and case management to help survivors reintegrate into society. The bill also extends funding authorizations for anti-trafficking efforts, increasing annual appropriations to $30,755,000 for fiscal years 2025-2029, with specific allocations for the National Human Trafficking Hotline and related public education campaigns. Additionally, the bill extends authorizations under the International Megan's Law through 2029, demonstrating a comprehensive approach to preventing trafficking and supporting survivors.
