Sexting Behavior: Coercion or Consent (Part 2)
Part 2 of the Sexting training series will take a detailed look at the layered dynamics involved in youth-produced sexual images and how professionals can respond. Special attention will be given to the systems response in these cases and questions that will often arise when forensic interviewers and other MDT professionals are faced with clients who have created their own sexual images.
Participants must have attended our prior training Sexting: Flirting or Felony.

2. Attendees will be able to prepare for the needs of future clients who have been involved in youth produced sexual images.
3. Attendees will be able to explain the connection to coercive behavior and youth produced sexual images.
