Abstract
Dealing with children who have been sexually abused can cause vicarious traumatisation in those who work with them. This qualitative research used a case study approach to investigate difficulties facing the supporters who work with the child witnesses in the Child Witness Project, which is a project using an empowerment approach to prepare children for court and support them throughout the court processes.
