Pre-RFPEducation & TrainingDetected Jun 22, 2026

The South Dakota Department of Education and Board of Education Standards are urging all school districts to provide staff training and student awareness on human trafficking as part of updated health standards and mandatory reporting requirements. The letter highlights existing offerings from the Division of Criminal Investigation and Child Protection Services, and announces that DOE will be platforming DCI’s human trafficking trainings specifically for educators with continuing education credit. This indicates a statewide push for expanded professional development, awareness programming, and potentially online training delivery for educators and others working with children.While specific procurements are not mentioned, districts may seek vendors for supplemental curriculum, digital training platforms, implementation support, and student-facing materials aligned to these state-endorsed resources as they respond to the DOE’s encouragement.

The letter cites Call to Freedom data and positions human trafficking as a growing statewide issue leveraged through internet and social media, which may drive demand for related digital safety and prevention education solutions.
