Florida passed a new Human Trafficking Law (Chapter 2019-152) effective July 1st, 2019. This new law establishes new requirements for the massage therapy profession (as well as several other licensed health care providers). The goal of this new law is to help combat human trafficking, where Florida currently ranks third in the nation for human trafficking cases. New requirements include required signs for massage establishments and a 1-hour human trafficking course.
