Training Description:
Child sexual abuse is “a silent epidemic,” according to the American Medical Association. It is so widespread that each of us probably knows someone who has been victimized or who has abused. The Enough Abuse Campaign offers educational information to parents, youth, professionals, and other concerned adults to prevent people from victimizing children and youth today and to prevent children from developing abusive behaviors in the future.
Enough Abuse: Strategies for Your Family and Community is the Campaign’s core training curriculum. This curriculum is divided into three major sections:
Part I: Understanding Child Sexual Abuse as a Public Health Problem
Part II: Conditions that Support Child Sexual Abuse
Part III: Preventing Child Sexual Abuse
Objectives
- Define child abuse as a public health problem
