Sexual Abuse
Sexual abuse is the act of engaging in sexual activities with an individual without their consent, which includes forced sexual touching, making the victim touch the abuser, or showing non-consensual pornography. It can happen to anyone, regardless of age or gender. Child sexual abuse specifically refers to any sexual act committed against a child below the age of consent, which varies by location. Survivors of sexual abuse often face significant negative impacts, but counseling and support can help alleviate the effects. If you or someone you know is a survivor of sexual abuse, our 24-hour crisis hotline at 1-800-625-1414 offers free and confidential support.
