Casino Arizona awarded with SAFE Action Project Certification
It is the first casino in Arizona to receive the certification from the Arizona Anti-Trafficking Network.
Casino Arizona and Talking Sticks Resort has been awarded with a Safeguarding All From Exploitation (SAFE) Action Project Certification from the Arizona Anti-Trafficking Network (AATN).
The certification was granted because 94% of the organization’s personnel completed the required SAFE curriculum as a sex trafficking prevention mechanism leading up to Super Bowl LVII. The training was provided by AATN’s SAFE Action Project which specializes in giving members of the tourism industry training on how to indentify, help and prevent human trafficking.
Casino Arizona properties has been recognized for diligence in sex trafficking prevention in Arizona. The actions were recognized at a reception on April 27.
This acknowledgment comes as Arizona is listed as the 13th in the country for human trafficking, with 651 signals received and 217 cases of human trafficking identified in 2021 alone, according to the National Human Trafficking Hotline.
Security Director at Casino Arizona, Anthony Maxwell, said of the certification, “We are honored to be the first and only certified casinos in the state to receive such a prestigious recognition from a reputable organization like the Arizona Anti-Trafficking Network. The safety of our guests is always a top priority for us, and we were mindful that extra precautions were imperative leading up to the influx of visitors for the Super Bowl.”
Maxwell suggests the casino will not become complacent and hopes other casinos in the area can follow in its footsteps, “This SAFE Action Project Certification is just the beginning. We are continuing our efforts in the hopes of training all of our staff to identify, report and prevent human trafficking on our properties and beyond, and we hope other groups in Arizona follow suit.”
