In our research with adults, we have discovered that none of us thinks we’re the person who does nothing when we are worried that someone we know has sexually abused a child.

Do you know whom to call with your concerns? Have you thought through what words you’ll say to protect a child’s boundaries? How would you handle a situation where a respected leader is behaving suspiciously?
