New Jersey Lawyer: Sexual Abuse In Churches And Youth Groups
When a child suffers abuse by a trusted figure in a church or youth organization, the damage goes beyond the physical. It affects families, communities and futures. These cases involve serious misconduct, ranging from verbal harassment and inappropriate touching to more violent acts like rape or drugging.
