In late 2014, the legislature passed into law the Human Trafficking Commission Act which created the Michigan Human Trafficking Commission within the Department of Attorney General. In early 2015, the Governor made initial appointments of the 14 members and in early 2015 the Commission began their work.
The Commission is comprised of 14 members; 5 of which are un-termed agency designees (Governor, Attorney General, Michigan State Police, Department of Health and Human Services, and Licensing and Regulatory Affairs) and the remaining 9 are 2-year term appointments.
Additional information on the Attorney General's human trafficking initiative, including prosecutions, and laws, is available on the Attorney General's website.
If you are a victim of human trafficking or have identified someone you think may need help, please contact the National Human Trafficking Resource Center at 888-373-3788, or text 233733.
This national, toll-free hotline, is available to answer calls, texts, and chats from anywhere in the country, 24-hours a day, 7-days a week, every day of the year.
All calls are confidential.
The Michigan Human Trafficking Commission invites all Michigan residents to join the fight against human trafficking.
