The Denver Anti-Trafficking Alliance Youth Multi-Disciplinary Team (MDT) exists to identify the presence of or the risk for exploitation/human trafficking and apply a victim-centered and trauma informed response.
A team of caseworkers conduct outreach to youth, providing any identified services needed for the individual that can consist of therapy, substance abuse treatment, to basic needs, such as clothing, food, and bus passes. Additionally, they continue to provide case management and engagement to build trust and rapport with the youth, where they will work with the client to implement safety planning and harm-reduction. If a client wants to report to law enforcement, Denver Public Safety Youth Programs is able to cut through red tape through partnership with the MDT, but that not is required for engagement or services.
