Rites and Wrongs: Faith and Trauma in the Shadow and the Clergy Sexual Abuse Crisis
Join the CHIRP Lab for a presentation on our research into the effects of the Catholic sexual abuse crisis on the wider lay population and survivors of clerical sexual abuse. By exploring the psychological concepts of moral injury, moral distress, and PTSD, we discuss how the sexual abuse crisis has affected the ability of the lay population and survivors of sexual assault to receive the spiritual benefits of Catholic rituals.
