The three-year £2.1m project, which is led by The Children's Society, will see multi-disciplinary teams established in Greater Manchester, London and the West Midlands, to support young people who are being exploited and enhance efforts to disrupt those who exploit children.
The design and delivery of the Big Lottery Fund-supported programme will be informed by the views of young people who have been exploited in the past. Work is due to begin next month.
