ABSTRACT

The multifarious impacts of childhood sexual abuse are well established in scholarly literature and through the voices of victim/survivors themselves. Despite the vast social and political consciousness-raising efforts that have ensued over the last four decades, those children sexually abused within the family unit remain politically and socially silenced, and/or marginalised. In order to realise a just and inclusive society, childhood sexual abuse victim/survivors need greater acknowledgement and support efforts to achieve social and occupational justice.
