Sorry for any cross-posting.
We may undertake a study to establish the prevalence and circumstances of
sexual abuse among Big Issue in the North vendors. The results will be used
to inform the provision of counselling and other services at our offices.
I would be grateful for advice on suitable methods from others who have
conducted research on similarly sensitive subjects. In short, how can we
get the information we need without further damaging such a vulnerable
group?
Given that there is other research on this within different homeless
populations, is it actually necessary to carry out this project?
Any advice gratefully received.
Cheers
