Child sexual abuse is more prevalent in the Unites States than people think. It’s a hard topic to talk about and many people don't like talking about it but we have to realize that it is a bigger issue than we think. Many of the victims never report that they have been sexuallly abused. Even after this the child sexual abuse rates in the United States are still high. “One in 10 children are sexually abused before they turn 18”. This statistics are based on the cases that were reported it was found that only about 35% of the victims disclose that they have been sexually abused and the rest don’t. According to the public health “there are only two big public organizations that offer counseling for victims” This means that there isn’t a lot of resources for the victims. There are other organizations that bring awareness to child sexual abuse but they don’t offer counseling like the other two. Darkness to light and one in three women are other organizations that offer educational facilitators but they don’t have therapist or counselors like the other two. This shows that we lack a lot of resources for children who have been sexually abused. This is a big issue not only because they don’t get the help they need but also we need to provide the help these innocent children need to be happy.
