Child sexual abuse is the subject of two one -day workshops to be presented by the Huron County Community Child Abuse Co- ordinating Committee (CCACC). The workshops, April 22 and 25, will be conducted by two specialists in the treatment of child sexual abuse and are offered to social service' providers in Huron County and the surrounding area, Approximately 100 service providers are expected to attend the two workshops. Margaret Bogue, a social worker in a private practice in Toronto who special es ; in therapy groups for sexually abused children and their families, will discuss treatment issues related to older school chil- dren and adolescents and their families, Dr. Darlene Hall, director of the parenting child abuse treatment programs at the Rotary. Creche and Family Clinic in Toronto, will focus on issues related to preschool and early school • children and their families. Both speakers will discuss the treatment' of sexually abused chil- dren, parents who sexually abuse their children, and non -offending parents who may or may not " be aware of the abuse. Dr. Hall will suggest ways workshop attendants can rule out false allegations of sexual .abuse,. a problem which received much media attention earlier this year- when a Toronto - area girl falsely accused her teacher of sexual abuse. Carl DeGrandis, ° CCACC chair- man, said the committee is pleased to bring such high calibre speakers to Huron County. Since service , providers are becoining more and more awareof cb}ldren who haave.I been sexually abased, they need to know more about the dynamics iof sexually abusive families and howto treat them. "Dr. Hall and Ms. Bogue have a great deal of experience with these families and a wealth- of in formation to share with service - providers in this county." . The Ontario Ministry of Copmu- nity ' ant Social Services ..haetl provided :a - grant to allow 'Huron County service providers to attend the workshops at no c p barge.
