We had another successful annual Human Trafficking Task Force Conference!

This year, law enforcement, prosecutors, victim advocates, health professionals, and community partners came together to learn practical strategies for investigating human trafficking, supporting survivors, and strengthening our response to these crimes.

Special thank you the members of the Tulsa Police Department and members of the Oklahoma Coalition Against Human Trafficking, for presenting and sharing their real-world experience and expertise.

Together, we can continue to support survivors, strengthen investigations, and hold those who exploit others accountable.

25 years ago, our nation changed forever.

Today, we remember the 2,977 lives lost on September 11, 2001. We remember all the first responders who ran towards the danger to save lives. We remember the courage, sacrifice, and unity shown. We will never forget those we lost, those who served, and those who continue to carry the impact of September 11.

We remember. We honor. We will never forget.
