Under federal law, any child under the age of 18 who is engaged in commercial sex is a victim of human trafficking.

Participants will be able to:
Recognize commercial sexual exploitation of children and youth (CSEC) and detect risk factors.
Identify and effectively engage CSEC victims.
Build skills necessary for treating children & youth affected by CSEC.
