Title of bill
An act to amend the social services law, in relation to requiring the commissioner of social services to make available on its website a poster with information regarding the national human trafficking resource center hotline
Purpose
To amend the social services law, in relation to requiring certain establishments to display a poster with information regarding the national human trafficking resource center hotline.
Summary of provisions
Establishments where victims of human.trafficking are likely to travel are required to post information regarding the national human trafficking resource center hotline in a conspicuous place.
Justification
Each year more than ten million people are trafficked - worldwide, including more than one million children. Victims of human trafficking are forced to engage in commercial sex, housework, farm work, and other similar activities without compensation or an avenue of escape.
The National Human Trafficking Resource Center Hotline was established to provide help and services to victims of human trafficking. Awareness of this valuable resource is lacking, particularly in the isolated communities affected by human trafficking. Posting information regarding the hotline in locations where victims of human trafficking are likely to see it, including highway rest stops, bus stations, truck stops, airports, adult or sexually oriented businesses and emergency rooms and emergency care centers, supplies the victims with a chance to be saved from this modern day slavery.
