Church sex abuse training encourages victim to come forward

The Archdiocese of Agana will be holding monthly briefings to update the community on various initiatives the church is taking. Guam - Since the Archdiocese of Agana's implementation of the Task Force for the Protection of Minors, some individuals have come forward to report abuse within the catholic community.
