This report investigates whether different groups of child sexual abuse survivors have distinctive service and support needs, to help the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse with its work. A literature review was undertaken, focusing on three population groups: people abused in an institutional context, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, and people with disabilities. The first group is of primary interest to the Royal Commission, while the latter two groups have been included because of their increased vulnerability to child sexual abuse compared with the general population, their long history of institutionalisation carried out as accepted government policy, and their continued over-representation in various forms of institutional care.
