23. Effective May 29, 2017: The Justice for Victims of Trafficking Act of 2015 amends the Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act state grant program  Add new requirements for identification, assessment and service provision for known or suspected child sex trafficking victims  Modifies the definition of child abuse and neglect to consider any child who is identified as a victim of sex trafficking or severe forms of trafficking as a victim of “child abuse and neglect” and “sexual abuse” – implies child abuse/neglect “investigation” process Recent DHS led workgroup to address this change and to propose legislative and practice changes to make the “investigative” process more trauma and SEY sensitive

35. 15-year-old Sudanese female, involved in the juvenile justice system for petty misdemeanor offenses. Her social worker shared possible concerns regarding sexual exploitation. PO shared that youth was denying any SEY involvement, but there appeared to be many “red flags” and requested I meet with this youth and see about including her in a Girls Group that I provide (which we hoped might be able to get at her possible exploitation). I met with this young lady who was very guarded as to what she would share but open to attending my Girls Group. She missed the first day of group and later I learned she had run away and a Missing Persons report had been filed. I then spoke with our Regional Navigator and shared concerns noted by the PO, social worker and myself. This youth was involved in our probation system for the following offenses: theft/shoplifting, curfew, disorderly conduct, trespass all petty misdemeanors. She had been placed on our low level (administrative) supervision. Yet her running behaviors were of significant concern.

36. This young lady frequently missed scheduled court hearings for truancy/legal issues; subsequently, the Judge would issue a Bench Warrant (BW) and requesting she be held at our local juvenile detention center (JDC). She was admitted to our JDC as follows: May 2014, June 2015, July 2015 and August 2015. She was held in secure detention on the BW’s issued, but did not meet other eligibility criteria to be held in a secure detention setting. During the youth’s last placement at the JDC she acknowledged marijuana and alcohol use. While there she completed a mental health screen but denied any SEY. Her mental health scores indicated concern in the areas of anxiety/irritability and depressed/anxious. At that time she also talked to staff of stomach pain and being anxious, she told staff she didn’t know if she would hurt herself, but later said, “if I can be alone in my room I will be okay.” Once alone in her room she calmed down. This gal remains on administrative probation supervision but probations contact with her is limited as we look to her social worker and the Regional Navigator to guide us regarding her needs & safety. Youth recently the victim of an assault in which she was stabbed repeatedly.
