The criminal exploitation of children is a complex type of child abuse where a young
person is manipulated or pressured to take part in criminal activity. It takes a range
of forms including dealing and transporting drugs or weapons (including county
lines), growing cannabis, theft and burglary and street crime such as begging
and pickpocketing. Exploited children often experience multiple types of abuse
at the same time, including violence, threats, emotional and sexual abuse.
Child Exploitation and Abuse – Prevention Resources

The Children’s Society has published two new briefings on child financial exploitation including an introduction for professionals. This type of abuse occurs when a person or group takes advantage of a child to encourage or force them into financial activity for the benefit of others. An additional resource on online sexually coerced extortion has also been developed for professionals as part of the #LookCloser campaign.
