Overall, the Gravity Network’s CAST survey provides a representation of the community of CSA survivors who accessed this online health community. Additional research is needed to show more specifics of relationships between characteristics and short-and long-term outcomes of those who have experienced CSA. Online health communities are a unique avenue to connect with vulnerable populations such as those with CSA to better understand their behaviors and needs. Gravity Network, with its online health community, serves as a unique avenue for
healthcare professionals to connect with such a population. Further, public health professionals need to explore the effect these communities may have as a point of intervention.
