Ahart, Gregory J.
This report contains the results of an extensive literature search by the General Accounting Office (GAO) on the subject of teenage prostitution and child pornography and federal, state and local efforts to deal with the problem. Also included are results of a survey of police departments and mayors' offices of the 22 largest U.S. cities and all 50 states. The materials deal with what is known about the extent of teenage prostitution and child pornography, characteristics of these victims of sexual exploitation, and subsequent effects. The report describes services and shelters available to these children and discusses current federal and state research projects. The appendices include proposed solutions and a selected bibliography on teenage prostitution and child pornography. (JAC)
