The child sex abuse royal commission has launched a nationwide advertising campaign to announce the closing of registrations for private sessions.
The registration for sessions which allow survivors of child sexual abuse in an institution to meet privately with a commissioner will close on September 30.
The campaign announced on Friday will consist of radio, print and digital advertising and will begin on Sunday and run until mid-September.
The demand for private sessions has been strong since the first one was held in May 2013 at Parramatta, NSW.
In April the commission completed its 5000th private session and there are more than 1500 people currently waiting to meet with a commissioner.
