Brief Program Description
This presentation focuses on the sex trafficking of special populations of youth who are at high risk of falling prey to the tactics used by traffickers to lure targeted victims into the commercial sex industry. Although any child can become a victim, there are certain populations that are at greater risk. For example, youth who are in foster care, who are homeless, or who feel unloved or neglected are more vulnerable to tactics used by traffickers to entrap victims.
