Preventing and interdicting child exploitation is extraordinarily difficult work. We face unprecedented and ever-evolving challenges to protect children from online sexual exploitation and abuse. Child exploitation crimes and the threats facing children have been exploding in scale, complexity, and dangerousness with the rapid expansion of digital technology, and this will continue to grow in the future. The alarming state of the threat against children demands comprehensive, serious action. While law enforcement and other professionals have made significant progress protecting the most vulnerable in our society, there is more work to be done now and in the future to protect children from exploitation and hold perpetrators accountable. This seminar will provide an overview of the growing and evolving sexual exploitation of children, and a call to action for Sheriffs as elected officials and community leaders to influence law enforcement partners, legislators and other elected officials, the technology industry, NGO, interagency and international partners, and others must get serious about the safety risks that modern technology poses to children.to yield the most meaningful long-term gains.

PRESENTER: Alfred Miller, Senior Program Manager, National Center for Missing & Exploited Children
