High profile child abuse cases of recent years have brought child safety forward in public consciousness. This book, written for managers and trustees of organizations working with children as well as criminal justice staff working with sex offenders, offers practical safety measures for children's organizations.
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
