Description
Ministry of Social and Family Development CSV from 2021 through 2024 on new Tier 2 child abuse cases investigated by MSF Protective Service, by sex and type of abuse, from the Domestic Violence Trends Report.

Official description
Breakdown of new child abuse cases investigated by MSF Protective Service by sex and type of abuse. The number of new cases may not equate to the unique number of survivors. For example, if a case was closed by MSF, and subsequently re-opened due to new incidences of abuse, it would be counted as two cases. If a case is overseen by both MSF and a community agency, it would be reflected as a case each in both the Tier 1 and Tier 2 datasets.
