Abstract Created by REACH:
Child sexual abuse is a pervasive societal problem. The current prevention model tends to place the responsibility on the very young people that are being victimized. Instead, there needs to be a more comprehensive approach that targets all contexts of a young person’s life. Parents, guardians, other caregivers, teachers, coaches, and others that work with young people need to be well-informed regarding the topics surrounding child sexual abuse.
