| Summary |
An Integrated Systems Model for Preventing Child Sexual Abuse utilizes a public health approach and 'whole of society' philosophy in pursuit of its goal: preventing and responding to child sexual abuse. Following on the heels of Understanding Child Sexual Abuse: Perspectives from the Caribbean (2013, Palgrave Macmillan), which brought to international attention the presence and significance of Caribbean research and theoretical perspectives on child sexual abuse, the present book explores strengths-based approaches and provides new information for empowerment strategies and community participation in preventing child sexual abuse. In pointing to a more systemic approach to the problem, this volume is invaluable reading for activists and professionals from a range of disciplines, especially those in policy, practice and planning positions. |
