Serving Youth Survivors of Trafficking Training – HT201 Training

The Ohio grant team has been providing a training on identifying and responding to juvenile trafficking victims since the FY2017 iteration of the OVC Improving Outcomes grant. Participants in this foundational training expressed a need for more intensive training to build upon that curriculum. In response, the Ohio grant team developed a three-hour training on Serving Youth Survivors of Trafficking in 2023. The interactive training will equip child-serving professionals with a deeper understanding of how to effectively work with youth who have experienced trafficking, providing practical tools to implement at their organizations. Through activities, role plays, and the knowledge of the subject matter experts, attendees will learn how to develop a plan for providing services, identify strategies for building rapport, discuss harm reduction techniques, and explore examples of promising service models.
