951 Sexual abuse of people with intellectual disability, trauma and ways of intervention Ronit Argaman Abstract People with intellectual disabilities are at high risk of exploitation and harm, including sexual abuse, compared to people without disabilities Beyond situations of exploitation and sexual abuse, multiple negative life experiences and other traumas are reported, as well as the initial trauma of the mere existence of disability. In view of this uncomfortable fact, there is a lack of extensive data and understanding in depth of this phenomena, and a lack of adapted tools for detecting and evaluating traumas and treatment methods for this population. The article emphasizes the importance of trauma informed systems and care, systemic and individual intervention in trauma situations in general and in situations of sexual abuse in particular, while adapting the ways of intervention to the populations characterized.
