Tier 2 Child Abuse Data by Sex and Type of Abuse (Domestic Violence Trends Report)

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. Case counts may exceed unique survivors when cases reopen or span Tier 1 and Tier 2 agencies. Child-protection researchers study incidence patterns in Singapore.

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.
