Thank you Stewart, for your prompt response on what I know to be your day off.  I know that parents have had or are having conversations with their children, and I'm not aware that GRS has made resources for that available.  If you are working on this, a colleague of mine who is the former director of [redacted] at [redacted] and oversaw their child safety programs [redacted] and training as well as the process of reported abuse allegations (within children's ministry), would be incredibly well suited to be a neutral consultant on abuse dynamics within church contexts, making safe spaces for victims and on qualified resources for them to get care (and certainly is qualified to educate on whatever else is needed). I've spoken with her recently and she would be willing to offer her expertise as a resource.  She is currently the owner of [redacted] and can be reached at [redacted].

All the best,

Eve
