Purpose: To find the most effective ways to support and rehabilitate children suffering from the effects of sexual abuse to improve their quality of life, restore their psychological well-being and provide them with appropriate social support. Methods: The research used the analytical method and a typological approach. Results: Different types of sexual violence experienced by children including incest, sexual rape, internet rape and sexual exploitation were explored. In addition, the work identified risk factors that contribute to sexual abuse and protective factors that reduce the probability of such incidents occurring. As a result of the research, a programme of work with child victims of sexual abuse was developed, which included six specific stages aimed at the rehabilitation of a child traumatised by sexual abuse. The programme includes getting to know the traumatised child, assessing the fact of sexual abuse, planning the childs care, conducting therapeutic and rehabilitation measures, implementing social and psychological support and monitoring the results of rehabilitation. Conclusion: This research can be used by professionals in the fields of psychology, psychotherapy, social work and medicine who work with children and adolescents who have experienced such trauma.
