Statewide Human Trafficking Victim Advocate:
The Statewide Human Trafficking Victim Advocate serves as a liaison between survivors and law enforcement ensuring that victims’ voices are heard in policy and protocol development, as well as responding to statewide hotline inquiries. Serving as a systems-based advocate, and a primary resource to the HEAT unit, the advocate will provide victim access to justice system information, legal and investigative accompaniment, and providing referrals and information to mental health services and community resources to ensure victim safety and support. Please email [email protected] for more information.
