NSPCC services to prevent child sexual abuse


NSPCC servicesThe NSPCC provides therapeutic services for children and young people who have been sexually abused and preventative services for adults and young people whose sexual behaviour poses a risk to children.

The services form part of the NSPCC's strategy to generate evidence on what works in preventing child sexual abuse with the aim of sharing this learning to protect as many children as possible.


The NSPCC services on child sexual abuse are:


Letting the future in: an intervention for children or young people affected by sexual abuse

A new guide to help professionals work therapeutically with sexually abused children and young people and their safe (non-abusing) carers.


The treatment of young people with harmful sexual behaviour: an evaluation of a manual based approach

An evaluation of a new manual 'Change for good' for professionals to deliver a structured treatment programme for children and young people with harmful sexual behaviour.


National Clinical Assessment and Treatment Service (NCATS)

A service providing intensive therapy to children and young people with serious harmful sexual behaviour.


Assessing the risk: protecting the child

A new guide for assessing the sexual risk posed by known or alleged adult male sex offenders who are not in the criminal justice system and for providing treatment to contain and reduce the risk.


The Offence Prevention Line

A partnership project with the probation service to provide a 24-hour telephone line to help prevent child sex offenders from committing more offences against children.
