title: Planning for sexual abuse prevention training of school teachers and health care workers.
abstract: Literature points out that there are no socioeconomic differences for victims and perpetrators of sexual abuse in families. It also states that sexual abuse is a "silent disease" and epidemiological data has only recently been available, however, research also convincingly shows that sexual abuse leads to severe post-traumatic and long-term pathological social, psychological, emotional, mental, physical and educational problems for the victim in the school, family, relationship formation and community participation. Ignored in many cases, careful planning is essential to develop a training policy and workshops for teachers and health care workers to recognize the possibility and address the issue of sexual abuse and treatment.
