The President’s Interagency Task Force to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons (PITF) is a cabinet-level entity created by the Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPA) of 2000, which consists of some 15 agencies across the federal government responsible for coordinating U.S. government-wide efforts to combat trafficking in persons.
On October 11, 2018, PITF met to discuss the Administration’s efforts to tackle human trafficking. Watch this video with Advisor to the President Ivanka Trump to learn about this year’s meeting.
