What the unintended consequences? This resource isn't meant just to train police officers or lawyers or corrections workers about how to work in the system. It is meant to help them think about the system they choose to work in and to do so in an informed way. This resource also serves students who are not pursuing a job in the criminal justice system—to help create an informed, knowledgeable citizenry.NOTE: Revel is a fully digital delivery of Pearson content.

Being Heard examines, from their own perspectives and experiences, the lives of young women sexually exploited through prostitution. Putting their voices in the centre of its analysis, the book tries to help us more fully understand the experiences of girls exploited through prostitution, the complex issues of sex trade work and the ways to best respond to the issues. Beginning with a discussion of what little we know about youth prostitution, subsequent chapters address young women’s experiences with community and government programs, issues of self-identity, health and safety concerns, experiences of violence, factors that push young women into and may draw them out of sex trade work, and the effectiveness of Canadian legislation in coming to the aid of young prostitutes.The book is based on a four-year research project undertaken with Prairie women involved in sex trade work as youth and those who provide programming for them.
