This document is a research update on the facilitators and barriers to child sexual abuse (CSA) disclosures, covering studies from 2000 to 2016. It identifies factors that promote or inhibit CSA disclosures, emphasizing the importance of timely access to therapeutic services for survivors. The review analyzes 33 studies using Kiteley and Stogdon's literature review framework and identifies five themes: disclosure as an iterative process, social-ecological models, age and gender influences, lack of life-course perspective, and barriers outweighing facilitators. The document highlights the need for more research on environmental, contextual, and cultural factors affecting CSA disclosures.
