Catholic Safeguarding Standards Agency Survey into the Church's engagement with abuse survivors 
 
The Catholic Safeguarding Standards Agency (CSSA) is conducting a thematic inspection on survivor engagement and support across Religious Life Groups and Dioceses. The purpose of the public survey is to invite survivors to contribute their experiences of contact with a Religious Life Group or Diocese following abuse. The experiences may be new or ongoing, as well as those connected to non-recent abuse. The information will be used to gain a better understanding of survivor's experience with church bodies, share best practice and to develop ways to improve this experience for both survivors and church leaders.

“The Catholic Life Safeguarding Standards Agency (CSSA) has asked every Diocese and Religious Life Group to help share a new survey inviting everyone engaged with the Catholic Church including Clergy, Religious, Parish, Safeguarding Representatives, Employees, Volunteers and parishioners to contribute their experiences. The aim of this survey is to understand better how the Catholic Church engages with survivors. 
 
This process is being conducted with transparency, respect and in a survivor-centred way enabling CSSA to identify good practice and areas for improvement across the Church.”
