The Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse has launched a national public awareness campaign calling for survivors of child sexual abuse to come forward to share their story.

Chief Executive of the Royal Commission, Janette Dines said that while more than 1,400 people had already shared their story with a Royal Commissioner, there may be many more people who are yet to make contact.

“A recent telephone survey found that while there is widespread community awareness of the Royal Commission, many people are still unsure about what the Royal Commission can look into,” Ms Dines said.
