Sibling sexual abuse is considered to be the most prevalent form of child sexual abuse in UK homes and more common than sexual abuse by parents or adult carers. This conference is designed to share national best practice on supporting children, young people, adult victim-survivors and families affected by sibling sexual abuse.
This conference aims to build professional confidence in and knowledge of sibling sexual abuse, enabling appropriate and effective responses to this abuse across different sectors. It will share national best practice, guidance and advice.
Conference audience:

This includes frontline and manager-level professionals and practitioners working in the following sectors:
- criminal justice

As part of the strategy written and delivered by Professor Neil Greenberg to help support frontline staff during mthe COVID-19 crisis, March on Stress has developed a short workshop for supervisors, managers and leaders to allow you to have a ‘psychologically savvy conversation’ with your teams, identify those struggling and signpost them for further support.
The length of the session (just 90 minutes) means that busy staff can access the training and it can be as widespread as possible throughout your organisation. At the end of the short session you will have had a small dose of training in ‘active listening’, and be equipped with knowledge and some practice in how to have that mental health aware conversation, using an approach called REACTMH®.
