The bill amends Title 42 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes to introduce a new section focused on trauma-informed screening for human trafficking victimization among juveniles. It mandates the Department of Human Services, in collaboration with the Juvenile Court Judges' Commission, to develop and implement a screening process aimed at identifying children who are victims of or at risk of becoming victims of human trafficking, specifically involving sexual servitude. This screening is to be administered by juvenile probation officers during the intake conference following a written allegation of delinquency.

Additionally, if a child is identified as a victim or at risk through the screening, the juvenile probation officer is required to connect the child with specialized programs and services designed for sexually exploited children. The bill emphasizes the importance of addressing the needs of vulnerable youth and ensuring they receive appropriate support and resources. The act is set to take effect 90 days after its passage.
