Project:
503
Description:
A child may disclose abuse but suffer retaliation, stigma, disbelief, pressure, or emotional harm because the disclosure is not handled safely.
Desired Outcome:
Disclosure is handled in a trauma-aware, confidential, and protective manner, with the child’s safety placed above institutional reputation, family pressure, or community discomfort.
What Could Go Wrong:
The child is exposed to the alleged abuser, blamed by adults, pressured into silence, or made to repeat distressing details unnecessarily.
Current Situation:
The need for disclosure handling rules is clear, especially because the project involves minors, sexual abuse concerns, and sensitive family/community dynamics.
Action Strategy:
Develop safe disclosure rules, including who may receive reports, what must not be said, what must be recorded, when to escalate, and how to protect the child from retaliation.
