We received this report from Ellen Gorris, Assistant Policy Officer, Rights of the Child and believe the research and information will be of interest to you.

MSSAT NZ, Kenneth Clearwater alongside Alastair Hilton and Chris Dolan were interviewed for this paper to provide insight about their experiences that clearly led to a decrease in invisibility for male survivors of sexual violence and abuse.  To read the report click here.
