Ambassador Luis C.deBaca has achieved legislative and policy success in a time of political gridlock. He is a proven diplomat and manager who has negotiated law enforcement, labor, and human rights advances and managed multi-million dollar grant portfolios combating modern slavery and sexual abuse. One of the country’s most decorated Federal Prosecutors, he built his litigation record into policy, transforming U.S. anti-trafficking efforts and including voices of victims, workers, and advocacy community in decision-making.

Ambassador C.deBaca retired from federal service in 2017. He serves as Senior Advisor for Justice Initiatives for the Grace Farms Foundation, and is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.
