Abstract:
Youth who are at risk for or who have experienced commercial sexual exploitation (CSEC) have specialized health care needs. Their experiences are often unrecognized, even with regular contact with pediatric medical providers. CSEC is a form of child abuse; this has been recognized by federal law and some state laws. Providers must recognize CSEC as a medical diagnosis and maintain a trauma-informed, patient-led approach. This article will assist providers in identifying and appropriately caring for youth who are at risk for or have experienced victimization and/or commercial sexual exploitation and point providers to resources to best support their patients.
