Foster Care Children and Youth and the Risk of Commercial Sexual Exploitation
“The intersection of sex trafficking victimization and foster care involvement has been widely recognized. We know from anecdotal accounts, survivor voice, and the limited data available that youth survivors of sex trafficking are disproportionately more likely to have experienced at least one foster care placement prior to their trafficking victimization.” In honor of Foster Care Month, we invite you to join Shared Hope and guest panelists in a discussion about the current state of our foster care system and the vulnerabilities youth face that put them at risk of commercial sexual exploitation.

In 2020, Shared Hope hit “pause” on our regular JuST Conference content to bring you a special series from the Shared Hope Institute for Justice and Advocacy – JuST LIVE! State Action. National Change. webinar series.
The series of free webinars introduced 6 key issue areas that form the advanced legislative framework for the Reports Cards on Child & Youth Sex Trafficking, which the Institute for Justice & Advocacy released in November 2020. The JuST LIVE! State Action. National Change. webinar series tracked these issue areas with two presentations keyed to critical aspects of advancing protections for child victims under each issue area.
