THE CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE RESPONSE PATHWAY
The Child Sexual Abuse Response Pathway highlights good practice when there are concerns that a child or young person is being or has been sexually abused. It aims to bring clarity to professionals’ responsibilities and actions at key points to meet children’s needs for safety and support and address their wider wellbeing.
Information and guidance has been developed which explains how the needs of the child or young person can be met throughout the pathway. You can view this by clicking on the coloured boxes below. Please note that this page covers the initial response to concerns of child sexual abuse. You can view the second page that sets out what happens when children's social care and/or criminal justice agencies become involved by clicking here or on the relevant box below.
