Trafficking Prevention & Services
LSS is committed to the prevention of trafficking across Minnesota through increased community awareness.
We connect with youth who have been exploited and offer services to help them find a safe place to stay, get basic necessities like food and clothing, and access individualized support to rebuild their lives.
In addition, LSS provides training for outreach workers who focus on trafficking prevention by building awareness in the community.
