Child sex abuse victims denied services
The rising demand at the country’s only dedicated, 24-hour forensic examination unit for child sex abuse victims underlines the “high need” for similar services across the country, a children’s charity has said.
CARI said a report from Casats (the Child and Adolescent Sexual Assault Treatment Service), in Galway, raised “the same old issue” that children across the country continued to be denied the right that adults have in accessing sexual assault treatment units.
