:: Child Sexual Abuse::
Those who inflict these lifelong injuries are typically adults who have close relationships with the victim. The worst of such sexual abuse is incest. According to E. Sue Blume, author of Secret Survivors, incest is “the most serious and most common form of child sexual abuse. Arguably, it is also the most serious of all types of abuse.” Legally speaking, it is a particularly heinous crime whose victims often suffer their entire lives in silent pain.
Civil and criminal remedies are available to victims who decide to come forward and hold their abusers accountable. Victims of such crimes do not need to suffer alone. If you or a loved one have suffered such abuse, several resources are available -- some are listed below.
