ONE IN FOUR

Strategic Engagement Director

One in Four was established in 2003 with a mission to end the trauma of child sexual abuse and a vision for an Irish society where children are safe from the threat of sexual harm. To achieve this, the charity provides specialist psychotherapy and advocacy support to both those who have experienced sexual abuse in childhood and their families. They currently work with c.850 clients per annum. The charity also has a prevention programme which focuses on working with individuals who have been sexually offended as a core child protection intervention. One in Four has a role in influencing national policy through dialogue with policymakers at every level to ensure that the legislation and processes that have an impact on those they support are sensitive to their clients' needs.
