Sex Trafficking Prevalence, Cost of Risk, and Outreach in Delaware: A Community-Based Sample

Reliable data on the scope of commercial sexual exploitation (CSE) is difficult to access; most reports rely on law-enforcement or health care interactions with sex trafficking victims, victims who reach out for services post-exploitation, or other non-governmental organization estimates. What’s missing is a real-time look at how sex trafficking victimization operates outside of organizations.

The Avery Center co-founder Dr. Angie Henderson, Ph.D, provides us with a snapshot of CSE in Delaware using a community-based sample.
