Sexual abuse

[Dennis Shaughnessy]

   The news about Penn State made me think about SVS's effort at proactively

dealing with the issue of sexual abuse. The unique open structure of the

Sudbury model make sexual abuse unlikely. However, I am aware of an effort at

SVS to make available a program on this issue. How did it work out and is it

continuing? It must have been a difficult decision because students aren't usually

encouraged by the school via posted offerings. Thank you.

This report about relational touch at Summerhill should be of interest
around these issues:

Thanks so much for the Summerhill pdf!  I think there are many issues confronted in this study that are very helpful. Candy Landvoigt
