Get Help

Child sexual abuse takes many forms.

Including sexual acts and non-contact acts such as exhibitionism, exposure to pornography, and voyeurism. Abuse can occur anywhere and between an adult and a minor or two minors when one exerts power over the other.

You are not alone.

It can happen to anyone – even friends and family around you. Even a child you know and love. Even your own child.
