Evaluation of Barnardo's Families & Communities Against Child Sexual Exploitation Programme

The University of Bedfordshire's International Centre has published a research report "Families and Communities Against Child Sexual Exploitation".

The report found that direct work with parents and carers, as well as with children at risk of sexual exploitation, can reduce the risk of harm to a child and improve relationships at home. Community outreach and engagement is vital when raising awareness, so that the information provided and approach used by those preventing and tackling child sexual exploitation (CSE) reflects the communities they serve.
