"Voices of Lived Experience: Perspectives on Youth Resilience and Growth"

The National Center on Child Trafficking is excited to share the final webinar in our series addressing mental health treatment for youth who have experienced trafficking and/or commercial sexual exploitation. The webinar series shares treatment elements and practice recommendations from The Consensus Guidelines for Mental Health Treatment with Youth Who Have Experienced Trafficking and Commercial Sexual Exploitation, developed by a panel of experts with service delivery and/or lived experiences of trafficking, to better engage and support youth and families and tailor treatment to meet their needs. 

"Voices of Lived Experience: Perspectives on Youth Resilience and Growth"

Anti-trafficking professionals with lived experience will explore how the therapeutic process can cultivate long-term healing, self-determination, and post-traumatic growth.
