(Undated) -- An anti-human trafficking organization in Iowa is one of three finalists for the National Association of Secretaries of State’s 2023 IDEAS Award.

Iowa Businesses Against Trafficking (IBAT) is a statewide program from the Iowa Secretary of State's office. Their mission statement is "empowering businesses to help in the fight to end human trafficking through trainings and outreach opportunities."

The initiative was recently replicated in Mississippi, and other states are developing similar programs.

Minnesota's American Sign Language Voter Information and Mississippi's Tackle the Tape are also up for the award.

The Innovation, Dedication, Excellence & Achievement in Service Award was established in 2011.
