World Cup rugby star Tony Daly was incredibly brave to speak about his childhood sexual abuse after 43 years. Here's my full TV special: youtu.be/agPRtGDQcgo via YouTube

The work of Sydney Law School's Professor Rita Shackel (Prof Law + Ethics; Co-Director, Sydney Institute of Criminology) has been very helpful to us at SAMSN. She says: "Misconceptions about sexual assault perpetuate injustice". We agree!📖 bit.ly/3rX0gli

Thanks to AG Mark Speakman for supporting this bill and Lawyers Weekly for the story. #CSA survivors told the Royal Commission they'd been forced to accept inadequate settlements; the new laws will alter unfair payouts. Article: bit.ly/3fMqTGm

Thanks joanna menagh + ABC Perth for this report. This article lacks the usual referrals to mental health service providers... could you please include us? SAMSN is the leading *free* service supporting adult male survivors of #CSA. abc.net.au/news/2021-05-0…

SAMSN recommits our support to the #LetUsSpeak campaign, which advocates to change laws preventing survivors of sexual abuse from being publicly named. Under the guise of "privacy" (but for whom?) our identities as male survivors of #CSA are erased and our stories are silenced.

We thank NSW AG Mark Speakman and welcome news that NSW will allow courts to break unfair settlements forced on #ChildSexualAbuse survivors by churches & other institutions, and will permit us to bypass gag orders preventing us from speaking out publicly. theguardian.com/australia-news…

Our own Craig Hughes-Cashmore speaks out! Read here: ab.co/36yqch1 For survivors to recover, we need access to group work and peer support. But in late 2020, after six years, the NSW Government withdrew its funding for SAMSN’s group program. Why?

The NSW govt has CUT funding to a life saving program for male survivors of child sexual abuse. For 2yrs we have been told ‘it’s with the AG’. Meanwhile survivors and their families wait. #auspol

SAMSN thanks ABC News' Dannielle Mahe for covering the findings of criminologist, Dr Sam Nicol, showing that sex offenders who avoid detection have a higher proportion of male & prepubescent victims. Many recidivists hide behind a veneer of respectability. ab.co/42gHsis
