Cosmic ray acceleration in turbulent interstellar medium is considered. Turbulence is treated as ensemble of moving magnetic traps. We derive equations for particle momentum distribution function that describes acceleration of particles in this case. Rate of acceleration calculated is estimated for our Galaxy and compared with ones given by other acceleration mechanisms.
