“…Good practice suggests that a full multidisciplinary and developmentally informed clinical assessment of victims and perpetrators of CSA will always be needed (Calder, 1997; Vizard, 1993, 2004; Worling, 2002). This approach reflects existing good practice in relation to the assessment of all children attending CAMH services (Bruce & Evans, 2011). Given the serious child protection concerns involved in these cases, assessment of CSA victims and perpetrators needs to be undertaken within a systemic, multidisciplinary, and safeguarding context in line with government guidance on the subject (Department of Health, 2003; Department of Health, Department for Education and Employment, Home Office, 2000; Jones & Ramchandani, 1999).…”

Victims and perpetrators of CSA present challenges and opportunities for professional intervention. Their complex presentations mean that their needs should be met by highly trained staff. However, their youth and developmental immaturity also give an opportunity to nip problem symptoms and behaviors in the bud. The key is in the earliest possible intervention with both groups. Future research should focus on long-term adult outcomes for both child victims and children who perpetrate CSA. Adult outcomes of treated children could identify problems and/or strengths in parenting the next generation and also the persistence and/or desistence of sexualized or abusive behavior.
