Subject: juvenile perpetrators in child sexual abuse


Hello,
    I am a doctoral student @ Columbia University School of Nursing.  In
my clinical practice as a pediatric nurse practitioner on Long Island
NY, I have seen a significant increase in the number of children under
15 as the perpetrators of sexual abuse on other children.  This group
has proved diffficult to access as they are first found in the legal
system and seem protected there.  Is anyone doing research with this
young group of children or know of someone else who is and may have
solved the access issue?  I'd like to take a closer look at this
population  Thank you.
