The National Institute on Labor Trafficking in the Illicit Cannabis Industry (NILTIC)

The National Institute on Labor Trafficking in the Illicit Cannabis Industry (NILTIC) is a free 2.5-day highly interactive course designed to challenge prosecutors and law enforcement to re-evaluate their approach to identifying, investigating, and prosecuting labor trafficking within illicit industries and forced criminality. Practical strategies will be explored by taking a deep dive into lessons learned in the illicit cannabis industry. The curriculum, facilitated by a multidisciplinary faculty, is grounded in evidence-based prosecution and trauma-informed investigative practices, equipping prosecutors and investigators with the skills and strategies to hold offenders accountable regardless of offender tactics intended to obfuscate criminal wrongdoing within illicit industries.

All allowable travel expenses will be covered for accepted participants of this training.
