Purpose:
|
The organization will conduct a multi-centre research study in 10 urban and semi-urban child protection centres in the province of Québec. The study will compare the portrait of adolescents who have already offered sexual services and/or have been involved in prostitution with adolescents who have never been involved in prostitution. The goals of the project are to identify risk factors and determinants for adolescent entry into prostitution and to determine the needs and gaps in services. The organization will work with their community partners to evaluate the results of the study to better target and intervene with young prostitutes, ex-prostitutes and youth at risk of prostitution to enhance services and to make recommendations to government bodies to assist them with development and implementation of policies and effective prevention and intervention programs.
