Combatting Human Trafficking with FBI Special Agent Daniel Root

When: Thursday, January 18 | 12:00 – 1:00 PM

Where: Zoom

January is National Human Trafficking Prevention Month. Every year since 2010, the President has dedicated the month to raise awareness about human trafficking and to educate the public about how to identify and prevent this crime. Because combatting human trafficking is one of NCJWSTL’s priority issues, we dedicate each January’s Lunch & Learn to educating our membership and raising awareness on this topic.

For January’s Lunch & Learn, we are thrilled to welcome FBI Special Agent Daniel Root. Because he often works undercover, we will not be showing his photo before his presentation.

Daniel Root is assigned to the Violent Crimes Against Children/Human Trafficking task force. Prior to the FBI, Daniel worked as a linguist, high school teacher, and with a refugee resettlement agency and immigration clinic. He was a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) volunteer before joining the FBI. In his current assignment, he investigates child exploitation and trafficking crimes, as well as serving as an FBI Crisis Negotiator.
