CSEC: Commercial Sexual Exploitation of Children Program
What is CSEC: CSEC is the commercial sexual exploitation of children. This refers to a child who is sexually trafficked or one who receives food, shelter, clothing, money, drugs in exchange for a sexual act. Approximately, 100,000 children are sold for sex each year within the US, and as many as 300,000 children are at risk of becoming victims of CSEC in the United States. Mt. Diablo Unified School District understands that this is an issue within Contra Costa County. As a result, MDUSD has developed a CSEC Program with the hopes of reducing the number of youth who are exploited.
