CASA Anti-Child Trafficking (ACT) — Stages of Change

The CASA ACT Anti-Child Trafficking’s video The Stages of Change Model: How CASA Volunteers Can Understand Youth Affected by Sex Trafficking explores how CASA volunteers can effectively support youth affected by sex trafficking.

Narrated by Rhonda Kuykendall, the Texas CASA Anti-Child Trafficking Consultant, this resource guides you through the Stages of Change model — Pre-contemplation, Contemplation, Preparation, Action, Maintenance and Termination. You’ll gain insights into each stage and learn practical ways to assist youth as they navigate their path to recovery. From understanding why youth may not immediately identify as a victim to providing consistent support through relapses, this video highlights the critical role of CASA volunteers in facilitating positive, lasting change.
