Advocacy for Commercially
Sexually Exploited Children (CSEC) Course

Welcome to the Advocacy for Commercially Sexually Exploited Children (CSEC) Course. This free course was created to equip you to identify victims of trafficking, understand the unique needs of exploited youth, and provide them with the highest level of advocacy. The course is 9 modules and takes approximately 2.5 hours in CASA College.

Note: These difficult topics can be very challenging to process, particularly for those who may be reminded of painful personal experiences. Please be mindful of your own well-being as you work through this course, take breaks, practice self-care and seek support as you learn.
