Abstract

This study was to investigate the challenge of tenure longevity associated with after-care workers for sexually exploited victims. The goal was to find factors that contribute to the after-care worker's tenure. Four case studies focused on questions related to burnout, secondary trauma, support and training. Significant findings revealed issues in categories of motivation, burnout, secondary traumatic stress, vicarious victimization, compassion fatigue, self-care, support and training. After-care workers universally reported significant burnout and secondary trauma. Training, support and healthy self-care measures were found to be a contributing factor of longevity. The findings revealed that after-care workers would benefit from increased educational preparation, organizational support and healthy self-care measures.
