English Summary:
Ecpat's new report, "There are good people too, but where are they?" highlights a significant lack of trust in the police and social services among children. The children who have had contact with the police or social services themselves report particularly low levels of trust.
The report also shows that negative attitudes toward social services and the police can have serious consequences. Many children choose not to seek help or support if it means having to interact with these authorities.
