Support for child sexual exploitation

National parent support

Our parent support workers provide independent, non-judgmental and confidential support, which fully recognises your rights as a parent and your decisions on how to reduce the risk of harm to your child.

We are here to listen to your concerns, give information on statutory agencies and procedures and to pass on advice from other affected parents, should you require it. We will never blame you for what is happening to your child and aim to help you find the best solution for your family.

Parent Network Days

Pace holds Parent Network Days around England to allow parents affected by child sexual exploitation to meet each other and share their experiences. These offer parents the opportunity to share knowledge and create independent support networks. Due to COVID-19 we are yet to confirm a date for 2021 but we remain hopeful that this will be a possibility in the coming months.

Parent Forum

Our parent forum is a safe space for parents to connect online, share experiences, coping strategies  and support to keep going when things are difficult. Please get in touch if you would like to join the parent forum.

Parent newsletter

Our quarterly newsletter for affected parents is an opportunity to hear stories and lived experience from other parents and also to hear about the the fantastic campaigning to change policy and affect change that our Open Parent Group are active in.
