The Youth Advocacy Certification Program is a unique initiative developed by the Tri-County Human Trafficking Task Force to empower high school students with the knowledge and tools to combat human trafficking and advocate for awareness within their communities.

​

Through this program, students will:

​

1. Complete the TrafficProofSC Training: Gain a comprehensive understanding of human trafficking, its impact, and how to recognize and respond to signs of exploitation.

2. Participate in a “Know Your Rights” Session: Learn essential legal and personal rights to help protect themselves and others.

3. Engage in a Capstone Project: Apply their knowledge by designing a community-focused project of their choice to raise awareness about human trafficking.

​

Upon completion, students will earn the Tri-County Human Trafficking Task Force Certified Youth Advocate designation, equipping them to make a meaningful difference in their schools and communities.
