Summary

The report explores current policies and practices for handling allegations of child sexual abuse made against providers of services to children and youth within the context of the youth justice sector and how these policies and practices have evolved over time. Because there is a blurring between child welfare and youth justice services, responses in respect to foster care and group homes, residential care facilities, non-profit providers and related volunteer services are included.
