Responding to Disclosures
You’ll build your knowledge of sexual abuse, increase your understanding of all types of sexual violence, and develop the skills and confidence to respond to disclosures in a trauma-informed way, whether the abuse occurred in person or online.
This course is designed for all organisations and employees, and is particularly beneficial for Higher Education institutions looking to comply with current Office for Students requirements.
1 in 4 women and 1 in 18 men have experienced sexual abuse since the age of 16, yet most people fear speaking out and never receive the support they deserve.
