Firstly, it is important to reflect on how adverse childhood experiences set forth a trajectory of risk for sexual victimization in foster care youth.

This is demonstrated in Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451 when Guy Montag and Professor Faber are considered outcasts for being against their community’s...
