See the Girl Summit Rallies Floridians to Build on Safe Harbor A leading national expert in ending vi- olence against girls, Malika Saada Saar, called on Florida’s child advocates to not back down rom rec- ognizing sex tracked children as victims o rape and abuse. Teir ultimate healing and restoration o bonds o trust that govern healthy lives should remain a top priority as the state debates how best to serve child victims recov- ered rom the sex tracking industry. Te call came rom Saar, ounder and executive director o the Rights4Girls project in Washington and keynote speaker at the recent See the Girl Summit in Jacksonville. Presented by the De- lores Barr Weaver Policy Center and Te Children’s Campaign, the summit drew 250 people — including at-risk girls, social workers, mental health proessionals, teachers and advocates – to ocus on juvenile justice reorm and sex tracked children as victims o rape. It highlighted Florida’s recent progress in helping victims, rather than criminalizing them as in past years. Saar, a human rights lawyer who worked to shut down Craig- slist ads that led to child tracking, called the distinction be- tween rape victim and child prostitute crucial to getting vic- tims needed treatment and therapy to reclaim their lives. oo oen, child welare systems do not properly identiy or help children who are tracked or sex – instead, seen as child prostitutes, they may be routed into the juvenile justice sys- tem where re-traumatization and re-victimization oen occur. But Saar’s visit to Florida in a lead up to the 2015 legisla- tive session is expected to rally child advocates around the good work already being done here, and ortiy their e- orts to prevent state lawmakers rom backsliding on pub- lic policy that’s good or girls. Tat progress began in 2012, with passage o the Sae Harbor Act heralded as landmark in its decriminalization o child victims o sex tracking. Once in place, victims’ advocates began the conversation around treating victims with sensitivity, understanding and pa- tience. Tey pointed to successul programs that provide trau- ma-inormed care and acknowledge the complex issues that must be addressed and understood – including runaway behav- iors that result rom victims’ exploitation and traumatization. It was that runaway behavior that prompted a legislative move in Florida’s 2014 session to lock up dependent children against their will – a move that Te Children’s Campaign, the De- lores Barr Weaver Policy Center, and other advocacy groups decried as a major reversal in child welare policy that would undermine the good intent o Florida’s Sae Harbor Act. Teir argument held sway, and today’s resulting legislation builds on the core o Sae Harbor to protect and restore the wel- are o victims. Among its provisions: a certifcation process or sae houses and sae oster homes and the creation o a state- wide council on human tracking within the Attorney Gener- al’s Oce. Tese and other provisions, advocates say, will keep Florida on track toward progress or our most vulnerable girls. “In no other context do we involuntarily lock up victims o rape and abuse or urther traumatization, yet under the guise o adults knowing what’s best or children, Flor- ida tried to go down that path last year. Te Children’s Cam- paign, the Delores Barr Weaver Policy Center, and allies throughout the state are prepared to deend Sae Harbor’s intent again this year, and every year, or as long as it takes,” said Roy Miller, president o Te Children’s Campaign. What’s needed, instead, is a concerted eort by all toward Flor- ida’s biggest challenge: creating a quality, voluntary service net- work based on research and best practices. It should be specif- cally designed to meet the needs o sex tracked victims, using mentor-survivors as frst responders, a proven model that is working in other parts o the country.
