Research shows how prevention education helps

New research from the University of Evansville shows
prevention education may not significantly increase the
number of children who come forward and disclose abuse.
But those who do and have also taken part in prevention
education are far more likely to be detailed and specific in
their disclosures. This helps law enforcement and
prosecutors in the course of an investigation.
