Human trafficking is a public health issue that impacts individuals, families, and communities.

Human trafficking includes labor and sex trafficking.
A new Missouri law will make it easier for some people to get their criminal records cleared. The new law went into effect August 27, 2021, greatly expanding expungement eligibility in Missouri. Expungement is the legal procedure for people previously convicted of nonviolent, low-level offenses to seal the public record and get a fresh start. The new law reduces the waiting period which opens eligibility to thousands of people.
