The Incest Commission, which will draw up a report on Wednesday of the testimonies it has collected over the past year, intends to take advantage of the budget debate to request several measures from the public authorities, in particular the reimbursement of psychotrauma treatment for victims.
"The debates on the vote on the 2023 budget will open, it's time to put forward five of our recommendations"
, explains in an interview with
the Sunday newspaper
Judge Edouard Durand, co-president of the Independent Commission on the incest and sexual violence against children (Ciivise).

To begin with,
“all professionals in contact with children must be trained.
They are the starting point of the chain of protection,”
he explains.
A measure which must be accompanied by the creation of a
"multidisciplinary support unit"
for these professionals, which
"will provide them with a coherent response"
because
"exposure to the suffering of others can generate intense stress, even trauma"
.
Noting that
“this violence has somatic, psychic impacts, on social and intimate life, throughout life”
, Judge Durand considers that it is necessary to dispense everywhere
“specialized care in psychotrauma”
.
"We want to build a course of care supported by the State"
, he insists.

The last two measures consist of strengthening the means of combating cybercrime and launching a national information campaign.
La Ciivise will publish a report with recommendations on Wednesday, a year after its first call for testimonies from victims of incest and sexual violence during childhood.
Since September 21, 2021, it has collected 16,414, says Judge Durand.
