This workshop will provide participants with the opportunity to construct a multidisciplinary response to high-risk victims.

Participants will learn how to quantify the problem of sex trafficking locally; define the high-risk victim and the correlation and commonalities between the chronic runaway, repeat victims of sexual abuse, and the child victimized through sex trafficking; and effective interview techniques when working with these victims.

Participants will learn about a 5-point strategy to combat the commercial sexual exploitation of children (CSEC), and engage in a group exercise to develop their own local response for child victims of sex trafficking.

This training is provided through the AMBER Alert Training and Technical Assistance Program.
