It's OK to Tell
This booklet has been written by young people aged 10 to 18 to explain what sexual abuse is, the impact it has had on them, and how counselling has helped their recovery. Members of a group in Northern Ireland called Sexually Wronged And Now Survivors outline why it is okay to tell if you've been abused. The booklet is aimed at young people and their families, as well as health professionals, social workers, teachers and the police.
