Fighting Human Trafficking

Human Trafficking

The Office of the Attorney General is the leading agency in Kentucky's fight against human trafficking.  Human trafficking is the forced exploitation of someone for labor or sex, and trafficking oppresses adults and children of all races, genders, ages, occupations, and backgrounds.  The Office of Trafficking and Abuse Prevention and Prosecution (TAPP) handles human trafficking cases and assists local law enforcement with resources in an effort to stop human trafficking in the Commonwealth.


Signs of Human Trafficking

A victim of human trafficking:

  • May show signs of physical or mental abuse
  • May not have control over their own money, ID, or personal possessions
  • May not be able to speak on their own behalf or unable to leave on their own
  • May appear to be fearful or submissive
  • May not know what city or state they are in, or where they are living
  • May work excessively long hours

Your Eyes Save Lives

In January 2021, Attorney General Cameron's Office of Trafficking and Abuse Prevention and Prosecution launched a statewide human trafficking awareness campaign, "Your Eyes Save Lives." The campaign combats human trafficking by raising awareness of the signs of human trafficking and empowers citizens, law enforcement, and community leaders to report suspected trafficking.


Funded by a grant from the Department of Justice's Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS), the initiative complements the passage of House Bill 2 by the General Assembly during the 2020 Legislative session, which armed the Attorney General's office with new ways to crack down on human trafficking. The new law, which took effect on July 15, 2020, makes it easier for the Attorney General to prosecute traffickers and aids the office in raising awareness about human trafficking by requiring airports, truck stops, bus stations, and train stations to post signs displaying the National Human Trafficking Hotline number.
