Today we’re highlighting our latest anti-human trafficking and exploitation publications—two tipsheets on human trafficking and child exploitation prevention strategies for educators. The first is a resource for K–12 educators that offers strategies they can use to talk with youth about human trafficking and exploitation prevention methods. The second tipsheet highlights how K–12 educators can implement a human trafficking and exploitation prevention program in their school with students and staff.

Our new resource brief and podcast are both focused on Black educator recruitment and retention, featuring three programs and their leaders: Dr. Rashad Anderson from Call Me MiSTER, Dr. Trinity Davis from Teachers Like Me, and Keilani Goggins from The Black Educators Initiative. In the podcast, we discuss their strategies for recruitment, how they promote educator well-being and empowerment, and disrupt inequities. The accompanying brief outlines how their programs incentivize potential Black candidates to become teachers, and remain committed to the profession long term. Both resources are part of Working Well, a project we created with The National Center on Safe Supportive Learning Environments that focuses on educator well-being.
