Child Sex Trafficking

Signs of Sexual Abuse.

 
 

If you see something, say something.
It usually is someone you least expect. REPORT IT!

A child or adolescent could be being abused (sexually, emotionally or physically) if they…

  • Act out violently against others

  • Become secretive and reluctant to share information

  • Are reluctant to go home, or want to run away from home

  • Act withdrawn or anxious

  • Are unable to explain injuries or have other physical symptoms (including soreness, pregnancy, STIs)

  • Avoid being alone with certain people

  • Exhibit age-inappropriate sexual behavior or knowledge

  • Appear to be the subject of an adult’s sexual attention

  • Are on their own without appropriate adult supervision

  • Are secretive about their phone/online activity

The best way to fight and protect children from abuse, exploitation and trafficking is by REPORTING IT. Trust your instincts, and don’t hesitate.
