Drummond strengthens state’s human trafficking response with $1 million in grants
OKLAHOMA CITY (Feb. 24, 2026) – Attorney General Gentner Drummond is awarding $1 million in grants to five Oklahoma organizations on the front lines of the fight against human trafficking. The funding, administered through the attorney general's Human Trafficking Response Unit, will support organizations providing direct services to survivors across the state.
“Combating human trafficking requires more than law enforcement. It requires a network of dedicated people ready to help survivors rebuild their lives,” said Drummond. “These grants reflect our commitment to strengthening that network and ensuring providers have the resources they need to do this critical work. We will continue to invest in the organizations that are on the front lines every day.”
To be eligible for funding, organizations must be certified Human Trafficking Service Providers through the Attorney General's Office certification process. Four of the five recipients maintained full certification throughout 2025. The fifth recipient, Wings of Hope, earned certification in the latter half of the year and received a grant award to help fully launch its program.
The following five certified providers will receive funding:
- Community Crisis Center (Grove, Jay, Miami, Vinita) – $237,500
- Domestic Violence Intervention Services, Inc. (Tulsa) – $237,500
- Dragonfly Home (Oklahoma City) – $237,500
- The Spring (Sand Springs) – $237,500
- Wings of Hope (Cushing, Guthrie, Stillwater) – $50,000
The grants will fund a range of services and operational needs, including staffing, legal advocacy, community outreach and education, facility security upgrades and professional development.
This marks the second time the Attorney General's Office has issued grant funding of this kind to certified providers. The office awarded $750,000 to certified shelters in 2024.
