INTRODUCTIONThis section of the CSEC Prevention Resource Guide lays a foundation for child sex traffickingprevention efforts in Nevada. While it may be tempting to bypass these chapters and proceedimmediately to an area of interest, applying the information in these chapters will help yourprevention efforts be more successful.Chapter 1 lays out the need for child sex trafficking prevention efforts in Nevada by identifyingrisk factors and prevalence of CSEC in Nevada.Chapter 2 describes a public health framework for the prevention of child sex trafficking andprovides an overview of the characteristics of effective interventions and implementation efforts.Chapter 3 provides guidance on how to prepare oneself to be effective while deliveringprevention interventions, including how to educate oneself, how to communicate, and words ofcaution and encouragement.8

Chapter 1THE NEED TO PREVENT CHILD SEX TRAFFICKING IN NEVADANevada is a major destination for those who seek to sexually exploit children. It is one of thestates most affected by human traffickingi with reports of hundreds of calls to the national hotlineannually. In 2017, Nevada ranked 10th in the nation for the number of human trafficking casesreported to the National Human Trafficking Hotline, up from 18 th in 2012, and 12th in 2016.2 Atleast 92% of the 199 cases involved sex trafficking, and 23% of the 199 involved minors. 3 TheFederal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI)ii Innocence Lost Initiative identified Las Vegas as one ofthirteen High Intensity Child Prostitution Areas. 4Child sexual exploitation and trafficking is child abuse.The Nevada Online Commercial Sex Market study which examined advertising onBackpage.com in 2016 found that Nevada led the nation in the number of sex providers percapita. Based on descriptive language in ads, it estimated that 19% of Nevada’s sex providerswere likely younger than the 18 years of age required to advertise, putting Nevada among thetop ten states in terms of the number of young sex providers. These young sex providers weremore than twice as likely to have indicators of drug use than older sex providers and at higherrisk of having been trafficked. Buyers paid more for young sex providers, suggesting a higherdemand by both buyers and traffickers.5“I am most proud of the work that I am doing now. I see girlsbeing trafficked every other day because I live near Tropicana(Las Vegas track). That’s where minors are sold a lot. Thesebabies have so much pain in their eyes. I do this for them.” Anonymous, CSECiii SurvivorRisk Factors for ExploitationA number of factors contribute to a youth’s vulnerability to being recruited into commercialsexual exploitation. They include:6 A history of child sexual abuse, neglect or exposure to domestic violence. A family background in commercial sex. Poverty or family economic strain. An unstable home life, e.g., parental absence/neglect, multiple foster homes. Being a part of an ostracized, undocumented or stateless group, e.g., gender minorityiThe term, human trafficking, refers to both labor and sex trafficking. This Guide only addresses one typeof human trafficking, child sex trafficking, which is also referred to as the commercial sexual exploitationof children.iiA list of acronyms is included in Appendix A.iiiCSEC stands for commercially sexually exploited child(ren) or the commercial sexual exploitation ofchildren, depending on the context.9

(LGBTQiv), racial minority (e.g., African American, American Indian/Alaska Nativev), ormigrants.Substance abuse by youth or parent/guardians.Running away or truancy.Disengagement from school, e.g., not completing high school.Having low self-esteem or self-worth; a need for belonging, love and affection.According to Kids Count 2018, 7 Nevada ranks 47th nationally in terms of child well-being basedon 16 indicators representing four areas of well-being: Economic (43rd), Education (49th), Health(43rd), and Family and Community (42nd). These rankings reflect risk to children, with somefactors contributing to vulnerability to sex trafficking.To illustrate this more concretely, the following factors contribute to vulnerability to sextrafficking. In Nevada: 19% of children (127,000) lived in poverty in 2016. 30% of children (201,000) had parents who lacked secure employment in 2016. 34% of children (233,000) lived in households with a high house cost burden in 2016. 12% of children (77,000) lived in high-poverty areas in 2012 - 2016. 69% of 4th graders and 73% of 8th graders were not proficient in reading and math,respectively, in 2017. 26% of high school students did not graduate on time in 2015 - 2016. 10% of teens (14,000) were not in school and not working in 2016. 5% (12,000) of teens abused alcohol or other drugs in 2015 - 2016.Additionally, 7 of every 1000 children in Nevada, a total of 4,869 children, were confirmedvictims of child maltreatment in 2016. Of these, 80% (3,920) were victims of neglect, 26%(1,273) were victims of physical abuse, 6% (269) were victims of sexual abuse, with theremaining being victims of medical neglect or emotional abuse. Some children were victims ofmultiple types of maltreatment. There were 4,251 children in foster care in Nevada in 2016. 8According to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, one in seven of the 25,000runaways reported to them in 2017 were likely child sex trafficking victims; 88% of these likelytrafficking victims were in the care of child welfare when they ran.9This data exemplifies the need for wide-reaching prevention and intervention efforts throughoutNevada, including targeted prevention efforts for youth who are at greater risk of being enticedinto sex trafficking and intervention for those who have already been victimized. To that end,the Nevada Strategic Plan was developed, which includes the CSEC Model CoordinatedResponse Protocol and Toolkit (CSEC Protocol), and this CSEC Prevention Resource Guide(Guide).vi The CSEC Protocol provides guidance to first responders and agencies forimplementing a coordinated response to identify and serve CSEC based on promising practices.This Guide provides prevention strategies and resources that can be implemented bycommunities across Nevada.ivLGBTQ – Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or questioning.vThe formal legal designation of American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) is used in this Protocol torepresent Native communities in this country with the recognition there are numerous terms used todescribe Native communities and differing comfort levels with various terms.vi The CSEC Strategic Plan and Attachments A and B are available at the DCFS CSEC Coalitionwebpage: http://dcfs.nv.gov/Programs/CWS/CSEC/CSEC/10

Chapter 2A FRAMEWORK FOR IMPLEMENTING CSEC PREVENTION IN NEVADAThe Trafficking Victims Protection Act 10 identifies three strategies for addressing humantrafficking, referred to as the 3 Ps: Prevention, protection and prosecution. More recently, theFederal Strategic Action Plan on Services for Victims of Human Trafficking in the United Statesadded a fourth: Partnership.11, 12The first strategy, the prevention of human trafficking – including the prevention of commercialsexual exploitation of children, can be addressed at any of three stages.“The primary stage of prevention seeks to avert injury before it has occurred “The secondary stage of prevention seeks to minimize the impact of injury that hasalready occurred and inhibit further injury “The tertiary stage of prevention seeks long term solutions to help restore or comfortthose that have been severely injured. This is a stage of last resort ” 13Most responses to child sex trafficking to date have been tertiary in nature, i.e., reactive,intervening after significant harm has occurred. Primary and secondary approaches, i.e., thosethat are proactive in nature, that attempt to protect children before any/further harm occurs arereceiving increased attention. 14The task of the Prevention Subcommittee of the Nevada Coalition to Prevent the CommercialSexual Exploitation of Children (CSEC Coalition) is to recommend promising proactiveapproaches to CSEC prevention. While research on comprehensive and individual CSEC
