Jericho - From Crisis to Coordination:  An Integrated Community Response to a Multi-Victim Child Sexual Abuse Crisis  Out of a Crisis of child sexual abuse, our community has created hope. Out of our story we have created this document. We hope it will help professionals and community leaders be better prepared to cope with a multi-victim, multi-offender crisis, should it ever occur. But more importantly, we hope readers will be inspired to work together in agencies and communities across the country to meet the needs of all sexually abused children. We encourage each and every one of you to do your part to prevent this type of crisis from ever happening in your community. Together let's bring the tragedy of child sexual abuse to an end in Canada.
	Care for Kids Who's Responsible for Child Abuse? When we kick our denial it's clear - WE ARE! And this is GOOD NEWS, 'cause if we are responsible for abuse happening, then we're also in a position of influence to stop it. The focus of this brief presentation is to consider: How we harm children with traditional sexual abuse prevention programs How adults can get over their "sex as a second language" hangups, so that they can effectively communicate with their partners, peers and children. How adults can use change theory to move from a place of denial and blaming to acceptance and action in solving the child sexual abuse situations in their communities.
