State Library of WA
“Through working in the prison system for approximately 13 years and having worked with many sexual abuse perpetrators and victims I am very impressed and encouraged by your publication.
I particularly like how easy it is to read and how clear and non-blaming the language is for both victims and perpetrators. I believe this makes the content readily digestible for both groups while maintaining a clear and necessary message about sexual abuse never being condoned.
I also see the publication having strong educational potential for both groups, which for perpetrators may be able to contribute to sowing the seed for future intervention should they be in the “treatable” category.
For victims the publication has great potential to contribute to understanding and treatment as well in terms of how their health and development have been affected, while also giving some framework for understanding how they can be helped.
I believe there is real benefit in the publication being widely available and to that end am keen to obtain additional copies for distribution to colleagues and clients.”
Psychologist, WA
“I read it with great interest and can see its value clearly.“
