New York’s Human Trafficking Intervention Courts
In 2013, Chief Judge Jonathan Lippman launched the New York State Unified Court System’s Human Trafficking Intervention Initiative, the nation’s first statewide system of dedicated courts designed to intervene in the lives of trafficking victims. The initiative includes 11 human trafficking court dockets across the state, which aim to identify victims and divert them to community-based services. This initiative focuses on individuals charged with prostitution-related offenses in an effort to identify and assist sex trafficking victims, opening the door for thousands across the state to escape a life of abuse and torture.
