Description
This session outlines the Arizona Trafficked Youth Collaborative: the coordinated response protocol for suspected or confirmed child sex trafficking victims throughout Arizona. Attendees will learn how trafficked victims are moved through the treatment process from key stakeholders in the protocol. The results of a data analysis conducted by Arizona State University’s Sex Trafficking Intervention and Research Office will also be shared so that attendees will learn about the demographic makeup and other features of child sex trafficking victims identified in Arizona since the protocol began in 2017.
