520 | _aThrough Budget 2019, the Government invested $90.3 million over four years to strengthen support for victims/survivors and services that address harmful sexual behaviour. This included funding to support services for male survivors of sexual abuse. As these services are relatively new, research was needed to inform ongoing development and address gaps in services for male survivors. The researchers interviewed 52 male survivors to learn about their experiences of reporting and accessing help. Thirteen service workers also completed an online questionnaire. Findings Male survivors can take many years to both reach out for help and report sexual violence and abuse. The study identified five key themes from male survivors’ experiences that impact help seeking: Gendered social norms and myths, including that sexual violence doesn’t happen to men, are a barrier to seeking help; The complex nature of trauma delays male survivors seeking help; The availability and quality of social support can help or hinder men who reach out for help; Services need to be affordable, visible and tailored to male survivors to encourage men to seek help; Quality support from service workers can build the agency of male survivors and help men report and stay engaged with services. The research highlights that a diverse group of male survivors’ needs have to be understood to develop targeted and effective prevention and early intervention initiatives. Recommendations for improving services include training for specialist and non-specialist service workers and gender-inclusive education campaigns to enable and encourage men to reach out for help.
