Child Exploitation Risk Assessment Framework (CERAF)

Children that come to notice must be treated as children, whatever the circumstances they find themselves in.

The CERAF (Child Exploitation Risk Assessment Framework) is now available for professionals to use.

A CERAF should be completed as soon as potential concerns regarding any form of child exploitation are identified; this tool updates and replaces the previously used CSE assessment tool found in the CSE Toolkit which has also been replaced by a new CE Guide.

The CERAF resources and guidance can be found below:

• CERAF Tool
• CERAF Guidance
• CERAF Multi Agency Flowchart
• CE Local Services Guide
