Our prevention framework uses culturally sensitive and age targeted education programs to increase the awareness and knowledge about child sexual abuse so that children and adults can recognize abuse and know how to respond.
Our counselling program offers our child-clients and their families support and therapy appropriate to their needs, which are accessed through our in-house counsellors as well as partner mental health professionals.
We support children and their families throughout the investigation and prosecution of a case, by providing information and support on legal rights, the legal process and possible outcomes. We also provide forensic interviewing to help in the investigative process.
