On July 16–18, OJJDP presented a two-part training workshop to address commercial sexual exploitation of children (CSEC), in Orlando, FL, at the Florida Network of Children's Advocacy Center's Fifth Annual Multidisciplinary Conference on Child Abuse. The session provided an overview of what constitutes CSEC, examined its impact, profiled the typical CSEC victim, outlined the various pathways leading into CSEC, and addressed a range of other issues. The training was based on the CSEC Community Intervention Project (CCIP), a program that addresses CSEC in five distinct communities across the country. A CCIP-developed training manual was used to help facilitate the training. Portions of the manual were made available to training attendees and the full version will be available online at a later date. For more information, please visit the conference Web site. OJJDP supports a number of training and technical assistance programs, collaborative demonstration programs, and research projects that address CSEC and its impact on victims.
