Montana schools add trafficking prevention lessons

Beginning July 1, 2025, Montana public schools include lessons on avoiding and preventing child sex trafficking and human trafficking. The law makes this a school goal for elementary and secondary grades. Schools work with parents and guardians. The law does not set a required curriculum or add funding.

State coordinates trafficking prevention education

Beginning July 1, 2025, the Office of Public Instruction must run and coordinate education to prevent child sex trafficking and human trafficking. It reviews best practices and shares resources for parents, teachers, child-care providers, and communities. It works with law enforcement and the Department of Public Health and Human Services. It helps school districts build policies, materials, and reporting steps.
