Human Trafficking in CT: What to Watch For
January is National Human Trafficking Prevention Month, and in recognition, the Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) hosted CTtransit and other transit organizations for a “Lunch and Learn” discussion about how we can all help prevent this global crisis. The panel was led by experts in the field: Captain Katherine Coney, Connecticut State Police (CSP); Louie Greek, Truckers Against Trafficking (TAT); and Tammy Sneed, Connecticut Department of Children and Families, provided valuable insights and strategies, empowering us all to take action.
“Anyone who works in the transportation space, whether they are in transit, on the rail side, aviation, or in maritime — they are often the eyes and the ears on the ground in being able to stop human trafficking,” said Garrett T. Eucalitto, Commissioner of the CTDOT. “The more we learn about this issue and begin to recognize the signs of human trafficking, the more we can alert law enforcement when we see something wrong.”
