dc.description.abstractBetween July 2015 and May 2018, CAST conducted a youth program evaluation utilizing data from 147 youth (between the ages of 15-24) survivors of sex trafficking served by CAST’s Empowerment Social Services Programs (including Emergency Response and Youth Program). Though CAST serves victims of all forms of trafficking, including all ages, all gender/gender identities, all sexual orientations, all immigration statuses, all nationalities/ethnicities, and all types of disabilities, this report focuses specifically on commercially sex trafficked youth survivors due to receiving specific funding from the William M. Keck Foundation to conduct an evaluation study on this population. KEY FINDINGS: CAST provides comprehensive services to survivors of all forms of human trafficking (both labor and sex trafficking), regardless of age, gender/gender identity, nationality and background. From July 2015 to May 2018, fifty-two percent (52%) of all clients served by CAST’s Empowerment Social Services programs were U.S. citizens and 48% were foreign nationals. The greatest proportion of clients served were female (80%), followed by male (18%), and 2% transgender. More than half of survivors served (61%) were sex trafficked, 33% were labor trafficking cases, and 6% included both sex and labor trafficking. It should be noted that CAST serves youth who have been survivors of labor trafficking and sex trafficking, but the focus of this overall report is on commercially sex trafficked youth. Therefore, when the term “Youth Served” is used in this report, it will only be referring to commercially sex trafficked youth. This evaluation study provides a snapshot of the 147 commercially sex trafficked youth who received services from CAST’s Empowerment Social Services programs (including Emergency Response Services and Youth Program) during July 2015 to May 2018.
