Child Trafficking Awareness & Prevention Resources

ACS is committed to identifying and helping labor trafficked and commercially sexually exploited children (CSEC) and youth achieve safety and obtain resources to help them heal and thrive. ACS established the Office of Child Trafficking Prevention & Policy (CTPP) to provide guidance for work with this vulnerable population. CTPP also works collaboratively with the NYC Department of Youth & Community Development (DYCD) to provide a wide range of services to prevent trafficking and meet the needs of youth at-risk and victims of exploitation through funding from the NYS Office of Family and Children’s Services’ Safe Harbour Program.
