Astha Ramaiya [Co-author] Shared the Journal Article - Published in Child Abuse & Neglect, June 2026
A new systematic review published in Child Abuse & Neglect examined the link between mental health and technology-facilitated child sexual exploitation and abuse (TF-CSEA). Analysing 10 studies with over 25,000 participants across seven countries, researchers found that depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and prior trauma were consistently associated with victimisation. Crucially, the relationship appears bidirectional with mental health difficulties both preceding and resulting from exploitation; creating potential cycles of repeated harm. Perhaps most striking: traditional parental monitoring through technological surveillance showed limited protective effects. What actually mattered? The quality of parent-child relationships including, open communication, emotional warmth, and trust. The findings suggest prevention efforts should combine universal school-based programmes building emotional resilience with targeted support for high-risk youth, while parent education should prioritise connection over control. With 12.5% of children globally experiencing online solicitation annually, understanding these psychological pathways is essential for effective child protection.

Event Description
Developing evidence-based programs that are in harmony with the culture of its participants are challenging to design, implement, and evaluate. This webinar will include a discussion on the use and application of evidence-based programs (EBPs) with racially/ethnically diverse populations, including potential challenges when making cultural adaptations. We will also explore the use of practice-based programs and the role that evaluation plays. With the increased emphasis on the use of EBPs within the behavioral health field, it is important to understand organizations’ experiences and understanding of EBPs with the populations they serve. A Latino youth serving organization will share their experiences with EBPs and their challenges in finding programs that meet the needs of the Latino immigrant families they serve. They will share the steps taken to develop, implement, and evaluate their own practice-based program, a trauma-informed Family Reunification and Strengthening Program for Latino families who have experienced immigration-related family separations. The main goal of the program is to help families understand that perceived, incompatible differences can and should be overcome to ensure healthy youth development and family stability. We will present a framework identifying the key issues in developing culturally responsive programs, followed by presentations and discussion among the panelists.
Panelists: Marcella Hurtado Gómez, Managing Associate, Community Science Carolyn Camacho, Director of Youth Centers, Identity Inc. Ligia Gómez, Case Manager/ Facilitator, Identity Inc. Tomás Rodríguez, Family Reunification Lead Facilitator/ Coordinator, Identity Inc. Diego Uriburu, Executive Director, Identity Inc.
