Over 1,000 people under 18 presented to a treatment centre last year.
Teenage girls account for one in five attendances at the country’s sexual assault treatment centres.
A major study has been published looking at presentations to Ireland's six units between 2017 and 2022.
Of the over 5,400 presentations, over 1,000 were under 18.
The research shows teenage girls are most likely to assaulted before midnight, in a park, field, or other outdoor space.
