It’s not something you expect to hear about at a casino, but for staff at Prairie Knights Casino & Resort in Fort Yates, learning how to spot the signs of human trafficking is now part of the job.

On Wednesday, more than 100 employees gathered for a mandatory training focused on identifying human trafficking, recognizing reasonable suspicion, and understanding how opioid addiction is often tied in.

While the training was required for Prairie Knights employees, the casino also opened its doors to the public, giving community members a chance to listen, learn, and ask questions.
