AttendThe Texas Center for Child and Family Studies is pleased to announce the second annual CSEY Service Provider Symposium, taking place on Monday, August 24, 2026, in Austin, Texas.
This year’s theme, “Partnership in Practice,” centers the critical role of collaboration in effectively serving commercially sexually exploited youth. From cross-sector coordination to youth-adult partnerships, this symposium will explore how meaningful partnerships strengthen systems, improve outcomes, and create more responsive, survivor-informed services.
This full-day, in-person symposium will bring together subject matter experts, service providers, and leaders in the field to engage in rich learning, shared problem-solving, and meaningful dialogue.
What can I look forward to?
– Interactive sessions focused on strengthening partnerships across systems serving youth impacted by trafficking
– Opportunities for peer-to-peer exchange on both the challenges and successes of collaborative CSEY service provision
– Dedicated space to build and deepen connections with providers across the region
– Practical strategies and tools to enhance coordination, communication, and service delivery
– Concrete takeaways to support more integrated and effective responses for CSEY
Our goal is for attendees to leave with a deeper understanding of how to operationalize partnership in their work, a stronger sense of community, and actionable strategies to enhance collaboration across systems.
