Greenlink - Human Trafficking Awareness Baseline Data

Greenlink received a grant from the Federal Transit Administration's (FTA) Human Trafficking Awareness and Public Safety Initiative. Greenlink's project is an 18-month campaign that will include:

A survey and open-house charrette to better understand the public’s existing knowledge and perception of human trafficking in Greenville County
Three separate trainings for bus drivers to become more educated on human trafficking and its warning signs
A training video for all new hires to ensure training consistency for all Greenlink employees
Three human trafficking prevention trainings for the public
Two public safety round tables to encourage dialogue with Greenlink staff, customers, and law enforcement about ongoing safety concerns
The production of ads to post in the buses and at bus stop shelters
A large-scale public awareness event

This survey will be open until October 11. Results will be shared at two open-house charrettes scheduled for:

Tuesday, November 10 from 8:30 - 10:30 a.m.
Thursday, November 12 from 3:30 - 5:30 p.m.
In addition to the two in-person open-house events, a recorded video covering the material will be posted on RideGreenlink.com/HumanTrafficking beginning November 9.
