It can be difficult for boys and young men to find information about unwanted sexual experiences and sexual abuse. Even knowing where to start looking for information, or what questions to ask, isn’t easy.

On this page you will find links to some short messages, videos and posters. There is some very simple information about some of the things that can make life difficult or confusing for boys who have been through unwanted sexual experiences or sexual abuse. 

Some of the posters and videos include words of encouragement and advice from men who have been through abuse, as well as parents. They agreed to be part of this because they know how important it is to let you know that there is help out there.

We know this page won’t provide all the answers, but might just help with finding the right person to talk to, or starting a conversation with someone you know and trust.

Most of all, we want you to know that you are not alone, and there are people you can talk to.

If you’d like to talk to one of our counsellors, call us on 03 9496 2240 or email ncasa@austin.org.au

If you are in immediate danger, please call 000.
