I just received an incredible invitation. To a summit hosted by the National District Attorneys Association. Here is the invite: "This summit is designed to re-focus our efforts to protect juvenile victims of prostitution and to prosecute those who exploit them. The goal of this summit will be to re-shape the institutional approach to these children as victims by building a better partnership between criminal justice and child protection. Solutions that involve a greater role for child protection systems will be reviewed as part of this effort. A monograph will be produced based on the suggestions generated through this process. Individual participants will be invited to contribute or co-author additional materials on topics related to juvenile victims of prostitution that arise from these discussions. A second issue addressed at this summit will be the identification of appropriate child protection responses and adolescents who self-exploit (sexting/cyber-bullying/electronic harassment). This looks like this will be an alternative opportunity for me to present my recommendations on how to more effectively address the concerns of young people who are at greater risk online.
