Often men's voices are not heard, particularly concerning the subject of childhood sexual abuse. Learning more about the experiences of males who have spoken about their abuse, and sought support is a vital step towards advancing knowledge and understanding of this area.

By participating in this research you can provide valuable information about your experiences whether you have sought help or not. This will help improve understanding of the experiences of male survivors and the aspects involved in the process of help-seeking for males.

The Spirit Within

I went on some great training last week with Christiane Sanderson, author of 'The Warrior Within'. She spoke about her new book 'The Spirit Within' which aims to 'provide an opportunity for survivors, religious institutions and faith communities to gain a deeper understanding of religious sexual abuse (RSA)'.

If you are interested in having a look - the link is below.
