Show Notes

Dan Nash co-founded the Human Trafficking Training Center in response to the lack of hands-on, practical skills training for law enforcement officers, advocates et al in the areas of human trafficking investigation and related victim support services. Today, the center provides solutions to law enforcement on conducting investigations that ensure arrests and prosecutions of traffickers, how to interview a possible victim or offender, and how to set up a proactive operation or prepare related reports. As a result of this work, the center has trained thousands of first responders around the world and increased the number of human trafficking victims rescued and moved to safety. In this discussion Dan Nash, a retired Missouri State Trooper with 27 years of experience in human trafficking investigation, provides real-life examples of how the center’s skills training is used to solve crimes and rescue victims, shares best practices for conducting human trafficking investigations at large national sporting events, explains how the center’s special victims methodology is causing a paradigm shift in law enforcement attitudes toward trafficking victims, and describes the value of including survivor leaders in the work of training law enforcement.
