Save Our Girls from Sex Trafficking Act of 2025
Congress proposes task force, studies, and grants to prevent child sex trafficking and support survivors
Legislative Progress
Key Points
- Creates a Justice Department-led task force with health, education, housing, labor, treasury, and homeland security agencies to coordinate action against child trafficking.
- Pushes a “victim-centered” approach: identify kids who were exploited, connect them to services, and steer them away from the court system when appropriate.
- Requires the Justice Department and Health and Human Services to study how kids get pulled in, who targets them, harms to survivors, and how big events can increase trafficking; a report is due to Congress within 3 years.
- Authorizes school and foster care grants to teach kids about trafficking and help staff spot warning signs, working with expert survivor-support organizations.
- Authorizes grants for law enforcement training, diversion programs, protection for kids who testify, plus job training and long-term care, counseling, and housing for survivors.
