Perspectives of Girls and Young Women Affected by Commercial Sexual Exploitation: mHealth as a Tool to Increase Engagement in Care.

Objective: We gathered the perspectives of girls and young women affected by commercial sexual exploitation (CSE) to understand the acceptability and feasibility of mobile health (mHealth) for enhancing access and engagement in health and social services during judicial involvement.

Methods: We conducted four focus groups with 14 girls and young women (ages 14 to 21) with self-identified CSE histories.

Results: Participants perceived mHealth as viable for accessing and engaging providers, and health and social services, and navigating judicial systems.
