More Information About this Project

Project Needs and Beneficiaries

Very few of these children receive effective counseling or therapeutic services that enable them to move forward from the trauma of abuse. In response to this challenge, RAPCAN and other organisations have developed a resource, aimed at promoting the healing of children that have been sexually abused.

Activities

The project seeks to equip lay people in communities to work with children that have been sexually abused and who cannot access therapeutic services. This is done through training healers to use the package to initiate a healing process for children

Funding Information

This project has been retired and is no longer accepting donations.

Additional Documentation

This project has provided additional documentation in a Microsoft Word file (projdoc.doc).
