The Child Welfare Virtual Expo: Building Capacity to Address Sex Trafficking and Normalcy (Virtual Expo) is an online conference designed to support child welfare agencies, courts, and Tribes in meeting the mandates of the Preventing Sex Trafficking and Strengthening Families Act of 2014 (P.L. 113-183). The Virtual Expo focuses on strategies for addressing three critical issues addressed in the legislation: (1) Protecting the safety and well-being of children and youth in child welfare who are victims of sex trafficking or are at risk of becoming victims. (2) Promoting normalcy and developmentally appropriate activities for children and youth in foster care. (3) Improving permanency outcomes for youth in out-of-home care.

Presenters include recognized leaders from national and State programs, sex trafficking survivors, and young adults formerly in foster care who share insights and effective practices.

Five of the six Virtual Expo sessions have CEs available. The CEs can be purchased separately for each session.

This session discussed strategies, insights, and lessons learned to advance meaningful collaboration among child welfare agencies and courts on normalcy and another planned permanent living arrangement (APPLA) to achieve successful and positive permanency outcomes for youth in care.
