WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump has picked Courtney Litvak, a human trafficking survivor, to serve on a federal panel advising the administration on anti-trafficking policies.
Litvak was a junior in a Katy high school when she met the people who groomed her for sex trafficking. The Houston Chronicle wrote about her story earlier this year. She and her mother, Kelly Litvak, now run a nonprofit, ChildProof America, aimed at helping people like her, and Courtney has become a vocal anti-trafficking advocate, drawing the attention of U.S. Rep. Michael McCaul, a Houston-area Republican, and Ivanka Trump, the president’s daughter and adviser.
