Human Trafficking

Human Trafficking is the exploitation of a person through force, fraud, or coercion; such as sex trafficking, forced labor, and domestic servitude . You are not alone.

The Victim Services Division supports survivors of human trafficking by providing emotional support, safety planning, and advocacy. We help connect survivors to essential resources such as housing, medical and mental health care, legal support, and when available, financial assistance. We do so using a trauma-informed and survivor-centered approach.

You are not alone. Human trafficking can show up in many ways. It may include signs of physical harm, fear or anxiety, and people appearing unusually quiet or controlled. Victims often have little freedom, may not have access to their own money or identification, work very long hours, live where they work, or seem coached on what to say.

San Francisco Human Trafficking Taskforce

The San Francisco Human Trafficking Task Force (SF HTTF) is a multi-agency collaboration dedicated to combating human trafficking in all its forms. The Task Force brings together local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies, prosecutors, and victim service providers to investigate and prosecute trafficking crimes, disrupt exploitative networks, and ensure survivors receive comprehensive support.

The SF HTTF focuses on labor trafficking, commercial sex trafficking, and sexual exploitation of children, while pursuing both supply and demand aspects of trafficking. Guided by trauma-informed practices, the Task Force works to hold traffickers accountable, reduce sex-buying markets, and strengthen prevention efforts through community partnerships.
