The article considers the concept of commercial sex. Socio-psychological criteria are described, according to which it is possible to distinguish a "risk group" among adolescents who may be involved in commercial sex. It is noted that the involvement of adolescents in commercial sex is due to a large set of interrelated reasons, which determines the need for a comprehensive approach to social prevention of adolescent involvement in commercial sex. The organization of social prevention of involvement of teenagers in commercial sex in the conditions of general secondary education is considered. The results of a study on the awareness of participants in the educational process about the involvement of adolescents in commercial sex are described. It is noted that preventive work to prevent negative social phenomena, including prostitution, is established and carried out in educational institutions and in the family. It is proved that the negative social environment, difficult financial situation, pedagogical neglect and other factors that in one way or another affect the formation of the child's personality, involve the use of a special approach and the use of non-standard methods of preventive work. The need to develop a prevention program aimed at preventing the involvement of adolescents in commercial sex.
