Abstract

Description

Our review will focus on available research on existing policies and evidence of effectiveness. We briefly discuss international policy efforts to prevent child sexual abuse, but particularly focus on reviewing efforts in the United States. We also make recommendations for future policy advocacy work, including ways to expand policy to include primary prevention.
