A special workshop in partnership with Miami Community to learn more about child sex trafficking. We will highlight the South Florida community and how to get involved in the anti-trafficking movement.

Project GOLD Director, Marta Martinez, LCSW, will join for a Q&A and to share her insights. Project GOLD is the division of Kristi House dedicated to helping youth overcome sexual exploitation.

This workshop provides a basic overview of commercial sexual exploitation of children (CSEC), the extent of the problem and the impact this type of trauma has on children. It also includes tips for identifying and engaging victims of child sex trafficking, and discussion of services needed for healing and reintegration into mainstream society.
