Fwd: Research Project: Survival & Recovery in Victim-Survivors of Adult Clergy Sexual Abuse

[Mary Hunt]

Kath McPhillips is a WATER colleague whose work is very solid. I am sharing here her request for people to fill out a survey on clergy sexual abuse. This is for work that one of her graduate students is doing. 

Thank you for considering this, 

Mary E. Hunt

Dear Colleagues, 

I would be really grateful if you could please forward the attached poster regarding completing a survey to your networks and colleagues. This is on behalf of Jaime Simpson who I am supervising in a PhD project on recovery from impacts of clergy sexual abuse. The survey is only available in English. 

Many thanks

Kath McPhillips
