This workshop will provide an opportunity for discussion and a basic overview for those looking to ensure the therapeutic environment is a safe place for their LGBTQIA+ client

Best Practices in the Treatment and Supervision of Sexual Offending

This session will review what we know about what works and what doesn’t in the treatment, supervision, and management of men who have committed sexual offenses.

How to Score and Use the

Sex Offender Treatment Intervention and Progress Scale (SOTIPS)

This workshop uses case studies to learn how to score and use the SOTIPS. The SOTIPS is a 16-item, provider-administered, dynamic measure designed to aid clinicians and probation and parole officers in assessing risk, treatment and supervision needs, and progress among adult males who have been convicted of committing a sexual offense. 

Making Child Contact Decisions Using the ROSAC 

Mental health, probation and parole, corrections, and child protective services professionals are commonly asked to assess the risk a sexual abuser poses to a particular child and under what circumstances, if any, the abuser might safely be allowed contact with the child. The Risk of Sexual Abuse of Children (ROSAC) uses a Structured Professional Judgment model for conducting these types of risk of sexual harm assessments.
