The Centre of expertise on child sexual abuse (CSA Centre) has published a guide to help give professionals the knowledge and confidence to act when working with children who have or may have been sexually abused. The guide, which brings together research, practice guidance, and input from survivors of abuse, covers: why it might be difficult for sexually abused children to tell anyone; ways to give children the confidence to talk about their sexual abuse; and conversations aimed at gathering information from a child.
