The goal of this project is to enhance the prevention/early intervention efforts of the YC early intervention services program to specifically provide early intervention programming against the trafficking of girls in seattle/king county while also serving survivors identified as a result of project outreach and early intervention programming. This goal will lead to positive outcomes for girls who are survivors of trafficking or who are at risk of trafficking that include healing, empowerment, and independence while also preventing future instances of trafficking of girls in seattle/king county. Through this project, youthcare will be able to enhance its advocacy and case management services for minor age girls who are survivors of human trafficking and offer culturally responsive support. Youthcare will continue to provide comprehensive services to survivors of labor and/or SEX trafficking who are 12-24 years old, identify as any gender, are US citizens/foreign nationals/legal permanent residents, and minors. This project specifically serves girls ages 12-17 in seattle/king county, washington who have been identified as at risk of or existing survivors of labor and/or SEX trafficking. Services are also targeted for girls who are also at risk of or already experiencing housing instability or homelessness.
