Publisher Description:
An accessible resource to help those in organisational settings ensure that they have taken all possible steps to safeguard the children and young people they are responsible for.

  • Draws on up to date research with people who have committed sexual offences against children in organisational settings, and new developments in interviewing approaches
  • Details recent cases to illustrate points about institutional failures in protecting children
  • Highlights the fact that those who sexually offend against children are a diverse and heterogeneous population, and the approaches taken to protect children must address the range of possible risks
  • Makes a firm commitment to the importance of multi-agency and inter-disciplinary collaboration and is relevant in both community and residential settings
  • Offers clear and practical messages and measures for organisations to act on
