| dc.description.notes | "The discovery of sexual abuse has many different paths, be it intentional where the child purposely tells, accidentally whereby someone discovers it has been occurring, or triggered whereby something happens to cause a recollection which may then lead a victim to disclose.<br/ ><br/ >However research informs us that children are more likely to not disclose sexual abuse than to disclose and many children don't disclose until adulthood (Alaggia, 2004; London & Bruck, 2005; Hunter,2011). Even when children do disclose in their childhood then most commonly the disclosure is delayed with an average delay being cited as 7-8 years (London & Bruck, 2005).<br/ ><br/ >More recent reports have strongly argued that children and young people need more direct assistance from safe and supportive adults to encourage them to tell someone of their abuse (Allnock & Miller, 2013; Esposito, 2015).<br/ ><br/ >This practice paper is a snapshot of relevant information regarding professional responses to concerns regarding the sexual abuse of children and young people.<br/ ><br/ >It details an understanding of the processes of disclosure for children and young people, but more significantly, the ways adults can provide a safe and supportive environment when relating to children and young people that may encourage or prompt them to disclose their experiences of sexual harm."<br/ >Introduction | en |
