DOS’ Participation in Anti-Trafficking Efforts in Haiti

The U.S. Department of State on Thursday said that it is actively involved in anti-trafficking efforts in Haiti following the devastated earthquake. “The disaster in Haiti has displaced many people and separated numerous children from their families, posing great risk and higher vulnerability to human trafficking.”  The Department and its partners are intensifying efforts to protect vulnerable children with UNICEF, the Haitian government, the Red Cross and other non-governmental organizations. Among other things, the Department was helping to remobilize the Haitian police’s child protection brigades, and other efforts to reunite them with their families.
