  • Stress and Motivation in Sexual Abuse Treatment: Insights from the 2025 Survey

    The “Stressors and Motivators Among Professionals Treating Clients Who Have Sexually Abused” survey, conducted by Safer Society Foundation, examines how stressors and motivators shape the professional experiences of those working with individuals with histories of sexual abuse towards others. The survey responded to growing concerns about workforce sustainability and the need to highlight not only the challenges of this work, but also the powerful sources of meaning and satisfaction that sustain professionals in the field. Among its key findings, the survey revealed that while burnout and professional strain remain widespread, respondents emphasized that profound personal rewards play a critical role in fostering resilience and job satisfaction.​
