Transforming lives and breaking the grip of human trafficking
Justice and Care USA is a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to combatting human trafficking globally. It works to improve the restoration pathway for survivors, ignite partnerships for global change, and collaboratively transform trafficking prosecution practices around the world.
We work together to transform global prosecution practices
The Global Consortium on Prosecuting Human Trafficking was created by Justice and Care and the McCain Institute in 2021, in response to the shockingly low number of exploiters who are punished for their crimes. The Consortium consists of nearly 20 leading prosecutors from across the globe, who regularly meet to explore how global prosecution rates can be boosted, how to transform the investigation, litigation and conviction lifecycle for human trafficking cases, and to share knowledge and best practice.

Guidance for Police: Responding to and Investigating Cases of Human Trafficking
In order to assist investigations of human trafficking, the Global Consortium on Prosecuting Human Trafficking created this manual to provide guidance to law enforcement on conducting investigations in a victim-centered, trauma-informed way that is responsive to the needs of both the victim and the prosecution. Written by expert human trafficking prosecutors and international advisors, the manual provides proactive strategies on identifying victims and perpetrators, collecting evidence, interviewing victims, and more. The tool has been endorsed by Interpol.
Guiding Principles on Application of Non-Punishment
The non-punishment principle states that trafficking victims should not be subject to arrest, charge, detention, prosecution, or be penalised or otherwise punished for illegal conduct that they committed as a direct consequence of being trafficked. Prosecutors have a key role to play in recommending when and how the principle of non-punishment is applied, and The Global Consortium on Prosecuting Human Trafficking created this set of guiding principles to assist and guide their decisions.
“Justice and Care’s support of the prosecutors consortium with the McCain Institute in America has been remarkable. Prosecutors in modern slavery and human trafficking around the world sharing their experiences. That doesn’t happen in any other criminal law. It’s an amazing thing and it wouldn’t be happening without Justice and Care. They lead the way.”
Caroline Haughey, King's Counsel Barrister
