Annotation
The Diagnostic Center of the U.S. Justice Department's Office of Justice Programs (OJP) funded the development of this Resource Guide to assist users in addressing issues associated with the commercial sexual exploitation of children (CSEC).
Abstract
These resources are intended to be a starting point for executive-level decisionmakers to explore how science and data can be used to inform policy decisions and guide the development of strategies to combat the commercial sexual exploitation of children at the State, local, and tribal levels. The resources are categorized under four key areas: Agencies and Organizations, Training and Technical Assistance, Promising Practices and Models, and Guidance and Publications. This resource guide is not intended to provide an exhaustive list of all CSEC and human trafficking resources; rather, it provides general information and widely available technical assistance resources for policymakers interested in learning more about efforts to combat CSEC and human trafficking.
