Breaking The Silence mostly addresses child abuse in churches. However it also includes adult relationships where there is abuse of authority which they define as where someone in a position of authority takes advantage of that authority for personal gain, including financial gain, by:

• participating in bullying, belittling or harassing behaviour to achieve his/her own ends
• manipulative behaviour designed to get his/her own way by flattery or by suggestions of favouritism, special relationship, or special status
• spiritual abuse designed to get his/her own way by telling people that God will like them more etc.
• it also includes what is sometimes called "moral failure" or sexual misconduct where someone in authority has a sexual relationship with someone under their pastoral care.

Breaking the Silence covers the Presbyterian churches of New South Wales, South Australia, Western Australia and Tasmania.
