A bill for an act relating to human trafficking, including screening children, civil statutes of limitations, an annual stakeholder meeting and report, depositions of victims, restitution, restorative facilities and protective services, and investigation and prosecution, and making appropriations.

HF 908 aims to combat human trafficking by implementing new screening procedures for children and extending civil statutes of limitations for victims. The bill mandates the use of standardized tools to screen children involved in court complaints or child abuse allegations for commercial sexual exploitation and substance use. It also extends the time frame for survivors of child sexual abuse or human trafficking to file civil actions to five years after reaching adulthood. Additionally, the legislation establishes an annual stakeholder meeting to develop further legislative proposals, prevents the prosecution of minors involved in prostitution, and directs the Department of Health and Human Services to plan for increased restoration facilities for juvenile victims.
