Coalition member K&L Gates recently launched the Anti-Human Trafficking Initiative, a new partnership between the K&L Gates Pittsburgh office and the FBI Pittsburgh Field Office. The Initiative’s focus is to identify and provide legal assistance to underrepresented individuals who are victims of human trafficking in Western Pennsylvania, particularly LGBTQ victims of color – a historically underserved community. Human trafficking is a long-standing and prevalent problem, and the Initiative aims to help law enforcement identify victims.
To find out more information, and to report human trafficking, please visit the Initiative’s website.
