SURVIVORS of child sexual abuse will be able to detail their experiences at private sessions with a royal commissioner in the Warrnambool district.

It will also hold a community information forum in Warrnambool on Wednesday, June 17, for people interested in learning more about the commission’s work.

Commissioner Justice Jennifer Coate will provide an overview of the commission and answer questions from the public.

Royal commission CEO Philip Reed said the community forum was open to anyone who had an interest in the royal commission.

“We particularly encourage people who have been affected by child sexual abuse in the care of an institution to attend,” Mr Reed said.
