AHLA launches human trafficking awareness training program for hotel associates

The No Room for Trafficking program is an AHLA and AHLA Foundation awareness program that builds on the industry’s ongoing commitment and work to end human trafficking. Through elevating, assessing, educating and supporting the fight to end human trafficking, the campaign will ensure hotel employees are continuously developing a better understanding of ways to identify traffickers and potential victims in hotels.

YOUR ROLE IN PREVENTING HUMAN TRAFFICKING
This free 30-minute online training program developed by ECPAT-USA in collaboration with the American Hotel and Lodging Association and Marriott International discusses the intersections between human trafficking and the hotel industry. ECPAT-USA also offers free tools and resources that can be used in conjunction with the training to help companies combat trafficking and inform clients and suppliers of their commitment.

Testimonial

I joined MLHA in 2016 and in that year I attended my first MLHA convention where I was immediately welcomed by the board members and attendees. While attending the sales and marketing retreats, I have met some of my best friends within the hospitality industry. These relationships have been instrumental in helping with questions about the industry, the Montana markets and over all tourism in Montana. MLHA has given me the opportunity to lead the sales and marketing council with the president role and this has been one of the best experiences to be able to sit on the MLHA board and see what an impact the hospitality industry has on Montana. MLHA has been a phenomenal organization to be a member of and I highly recommend Montana based hotels to have their hotel managers join MLHA to take advantage of the specific hotel based trainings and networking with like individuals for opportunities to grow their leaders.
