Today Jan continues her series on how to handle having someone, especially a child, disclose their abuse to you. The focus of this episode is reaching out to the proper authorities and how vital it is that families report abuse, because it's so often that family members will try to deal with the problem internally, which just leads to more damage and more abuse. Take care of the problem using the proper channels for the sake of the abused.

Today Jan continues her series on how to handle having someone, especially a child, disclose their abuse to you. The focus of this episode is how to mitigate the damage that self-blame and self-shame the survivor has already developed during the span of the abuse and making sure that you, as a safe adult in their life, don't compound that shame and blame.
