November and December 2020: Wilmington University Human Trafficking Awareness Webinars and February 2021 Human Trafficking Summit

NIWAP presented two webinars in the fall of 2020 for Wilmington University’s human trafficking awareness webinars. The first webinar was on November 24, 2020 titled, “Federal Protections For Immigrant Victims of Human Trafficking, Domestic Violence, and Other Crimes Under the TVPA and VAWA.” The second webinar was on December 15, 2020 titled, “Complicated Overlay of Domestic Violence, Immigration Status, and Human Trafficking.”

The webinars focused on identifying juvenile and adult immigrant victims who are eligible for federal protections and understanding how early access to federal VAWATVPA, and SIJS immigration protections can stabilize individual victims and increase safety in your community.
