MOSAICS training and technical assistance (TTA) assists courts in advancing the identification of and responses to survivors of human trafficking who are facing criminal charges. Our training is centered around creating trauma-responsive courtrooms to reduce the harm and the re-victimization that, too often, plays out in legal proceedings.

Qualities of MOSAICS TTA

MOSAICS TTA is:

• For entire court teams to be trained together – including judges, attorneys, court clerks, court managers, court officers, correction officers, probation/parole officers, and others
• Tailored to the needs of specific jurisdictions
• Will help courts build sustainable relationships with community partners

Requirements to Participate

If you're interested in MOSAICS TTA here are a few things to consider:

• TTA is a time commitment. You will need a commitment from all court staff and justice professionals to participate in TTA. This includes:

  • Interviews with training faculty (0.5 - 1 hour per interview)
  • Being present for the entirety of direct TTA (several hours to three days)
