Information in this course aims not only to recognize problem of sexual child abuse, in particular in the church environment, but to teach clergy or religious people to be sensitive to this problem. The course will show you how to help a victim, whether it is a child or an adult who has been abused in the past.

I like the structure, it seems as if you are being taken by the hand from one stage to another. Also, the animations really brought the video to life. The course is informative, the issues are comprehensively covered, complex terms are explained, the vocabulary is simple and clear. And most importantly, each chapter seems to make you want to explore the issue even deeper.
