Sexual Exploitation - ANSWER✔✔-Sexual Exploitation includes observing, allowing observation of,
recording, or photographing private sexual activity or intimate parts without consent of all parties
involved, or disseminating images of the same. Sexual Exploitation also includes engaging in prostitution,

Child Sexual Abuse - ANSWER✔✔-The U.S. Center for SafeSport utilizes the broadest possible definition
of child sexual abuse under federal or state laws. Broadly, child sexual abuse includes the employment,
use, persuasion, inducement, enticement, or coercion of a child to engage in, or assist another person to
engage in, sexually explicit conduct or sexual exploitation of children, including child pornography.
Legal definitions vary by state or province. To find guidelines concerning your area, visit in the U.S. or
Canadian Sexual Abuse Laws by Jurisdiction in the Resources section.
Non-sexual Child Abuse is also a violation of the SafeSport Code. Child sexual abuse will be addressed
later in this section.
