Important Notice

Compass Connections is honored to assume operations of the National Human Trafficking Hotline. We are working closely with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and Polaris to ensure a smooth and coordinated transition. To ensure there are no lapses in services, the handoff of the Hotline communication channels including SMS, chat, and the toll-free number is being conducted in a phased approach over the next month, with full operational transition anticipated in December.


During this transition period, our joint focus with HHS and Polaris remains on maintaining survivor safety, confidentiality, and continuous access to critical services. We appreciate the patience and support of the Hotline partners and stakeholders throughout this process. Once the transition is complete, Compass Connections will begin engaging with partners and stakeholders to strengthen collaboration and continue our shared commitment to supporting survivors and combating human trafficking.
