Language Matters!
Victim-blaming language may reinforce messages from perpetrators around shame and guilt. This in turn may prevent the person from disclosing their abuse, through fear of being blamed by professionals. When victim-blaming language is used amongst professionals, there is a risk of normalising and minimising the person’s experience, resulting in a lack of appropriate response.
This short session covers the appropriate language to use when working with children and young people who are at risk of risk of exploitation
This is a level 2 (Safeguarding Professionals) session.
