Call for Proposals for Combating Human Trafficking in Transportation Impact Awards

The annual USDOT Combating Human Trafficking in Transportation Impact Awards seek to raise awareness among transportation stakeholders about human trafficking and increase training and prevention efforts. The awards serve as a platform for transportation stakeholders to creatively develop counter-trafficking tools, initiatives, campaigns, and technologies that can help prevent human trafficking.

Entrants compete for three awards: up to $100,000 for first place, up to $50,000 for second place, and up to $25,000 for third place. The prizes are awarded to the individual(s) or entities selected for creating the most impactful and innovative counter-trafficking initiative or technology.

USDOT seeks to incentivize individuals and entities to think creatively in developing innovative solutions to combat human trafficking in the transportation industry, and to share those innovations and lessons learned with the broader community.

Submissions will be accepted through June 22.
