2019 State Report Cards – Protected Innocence Challenge

2019 | 2018 | 2017 | 2016 | 2015 | 2014 | 2013 | 2012 | 2011

The Protected Innocence Challenge is a comprehensive study of existing state laws designed to inspire and equip advocates.
Under the Challenge, every state receives a Report Card that grades the state on 41 key legislative components that must be addressed in a state’s laws in order to effectively respond to the crime of domestic minor sex trafficking. In addition, each state receives a complete analysis of this 41-component review and practical recommendations for improvement.
