The Preventing Child Trafficking Act of 2025 directs two Justice Department offices—the Office for Victims of Crime and the Office on Trafficking in Persons—to continue implementing recommendations from a December 2023 Government Accountability Office report on child trafficking. The agencies must work together to develop strategies that prevent child trafficking and support survivors, while also establishing clear, measurable performance goals for anti-trafficking programs based on existing data. Within 180 days of the bill's enactment, the Director of the Office for Victims of Crime must report to Congress detailing what steps have been taken to implement these recommendations. The bill essentially requires ongoing coordination between federal agencies and ensures accountability through regular congressional reporting, but does not specify new funding amounts or create new programs.
