The main thing to remember is, except for a small minority of extreme cases, many people who cause sexual harm will stop their abusive behaviour if they get proper specialised clinical help. Recent research in New Zealand show that a vast majority do NOT re-offend after completing treatment, with only 2% of adolescents and 5% of adults re-offending*.
\n\nWe know that the work we do is something that's hard to talk about and difficult to hear. But we also know that it is work that is essential if we are all going to find a way to live lives free from harmful sexual behaviour.
