Institutional Abuse

All too often, abuse occurs in institutions in which parents have rightfully entrusted the care of their children. Abusers who exploit their authority are found in all types of institutions, including:

• Churches
• Boy Scouts of America
• Schools
• Youth service organizations

Adults are also subject to abuse, especially in the workplace. Vulnerable individuals in nursing homes and other care facilities may also be victims of abuse by staff members who are charged with their care.
