Staff will gain a better understanding of Manitoba’s sexual exploitation strategy, legislation surrounding sexual exploitation, the purpose of Streat Reach, who they are and what they do, and how to work in partnership with them.

The Manitoba government launched its sexual exploitation strategy in 2002 and renamed it Tracia’s Trust (in 2008) in memory of Tracia Owen, a 14-year-old who was sexually exploited and died by suicide in 2005.

The StreatReach program was built upon the premise that children most frequently missing are the same children at the highest risk of being sexually exploited, drug and gang- involved, and victims of physical and sexual assault and murder. A rapid and multi-system coordinated response helps to better identify, locate, and assist these high-risk victims.
