SUMMARY As you can see, a number of different services and agencies become involved in child sexual abuse cases. This is because a wide range of experience and skills are needed to ensure the protection and welfare of the victim, the support of the victim's parents and caregivers and to see that the offender is dealt with properly.
The decision to report the suspected sexual abuse of a child is not an easy one and neither is what happens after you make a report easy.
We hope that the “WWHIIT?” programme will assist by clarifying the procedures and support, outlining your and the child's rights and letting you know that:-
reporting sexual abuse is not only the right thing to do for the sake of your child, but it also assists in the protection of other children as well.
