Phone: (02) 6287 3935 or; 0488 586 518 (Text only for Deaf and Hearing Impaired)
Sexual assault against males often goes unreported or even un-noticed. Society doesn’t expect men to victims of this nature. Most of the clients accessing support at SAMSSA are adult survivors of child abuse, but there is still some incidence of sexual violence against adult males.
