A current bill moving through the House will teach the dangers and warning signs of human trafficking in Florida public schools.

According to news sources, the curriculum would include how to recognize and understand human trafficking as well as child abuse. Currently 22 school districts in Florida already include information about human trafficking in health classes.

The bill was passed unanimously by a House Education subcommittee.
