The National Child Traumatic Stress Network (NCTSN) published information regarding childhood trauma. The NCTSN defines trauma as an event a child is involved in or witnesses and is intensively threatened by it. One type of trauma the NCTSN recognizes is sexual abuse. Child sexual abuse consists of any interaction between a child and an adult (or another child) in which the child is used for sexual stimulation of the perpetrator or an observer. Children experiencing sexual abuse may display a wide range of reactions, including sleeping difficulties, withdrawn behavior, angry outbursts, anxiety, or depression. Younger children may re-enact aspects of the experience, and difficulties worsen into adolescence as teens who experience sexual abuse are more likely to abuse substances or engage in high-risk behaviors. In addition to the effects, the NCTSN websites also provide interventions shown to be effective in improving trauma-specific outcomes for children and teens following sexual abuse and other various resources.
