Name of program:
Sex Offender Treatment Program
Our
outpatient program is primarily designed to evaluate and treat adults
who orient sexually toward children. We also provide sevices to other
sex offenders, such as exhibitionists and rapists. We feel that it is
crucial to trat the sex offender in a program designed to change the
long-term behavior patterns, dynamics, attitudes, and cognitive
distortions that gave rise to the abusive behavior.
Our treatment program is very specific and unique. We design an
individual intervention apprach for each client, according to his/her
needs and according to the situation involved. We do, however, focus
with equal intensity on the offender and on the social context of the
offender (i.e. his/her family and the community).
Therapy for sex offenders is usually a long term process which lasts
for a minimum of two years. Sessions are usually being conducted on a
once-a-week basis, unless the situation requires more fequent
appointments. Admission_requirements: Students and psychotherapists who
actually work clients and have some professional experience.

1. PROGRAMS AND OBJECTIVES
Both
undergraduate and graduate programs should provide basic coursework in
the field of human sexuality and the relation of the field to the
benefit of the larger community. Graduate degree programs should make
it possible for professional degree students to apply the knowledge and
skills acquired in the classroom to field practice, internships,
research activities, or other approaches to practical application of
knowledge and skills. These should be required for those without
previous substantial work experience. Such opportunities should be
arranged in cooperation with as wide a range of resources in the
community as possible.
1.1 Interpretation
In
addition to the basic topics and curriculum descriptions described in
the following section, the program may present instruction, research,
and service opportunities in other content areas in keeping with the
program's own mission and goals and with the objectives of individual
students. Students should have the opportunity to acquire a general
grounding in basic knowledge in the field and should be encouraged to
pursue elective courses that will broaden their perspective. The
program's stated learning objectives should dearly relate to the
program's stated mission, goals, and teaching objectives for each
course of study. Learning expectations for core content should be
openly stated. Enrolled students and applicants for enrollment should
have access to counseling, and enrolled students should be provided
with advisors who are knowledgeable about the overall curriculum, about
specific courses of study, and about available career paths and
opportunities. Finally, the program is encouraged to develop plans to
meet the needs of mid-career professionals in related fields, given the
rapidly changing body of knowledge and skills developing in the field
of human sexuality. If such plans are developed, special funding should
be sought for such continuing education goals and learning objectives.
Following
is an extensive description of basic requirements for undergraduate
programs, and for graduate programs at the Master's and Doctoral level.
Note that types of programs covered at both levels of graduate work are
as follows:
- General Program
- Sex Education Program
- Sexual Therapy Program
- Program in Sex Research
- Health Related Program
In
each case, required topics to be covered, not necessarily all as
separate courses, for each level and type of program are listed.
2. UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
Specific
topics or courses to be required in fully-developed programs, such as
in minors in the field, are as follows . Note that individuals may
prefer variations in choice of words to denote these topics, but the
conceptual content should represent basic agreement. Also, throughout
this report, required topics are not considered necessarily as separate
courses but rather may be areas to be covered within the structure of designated courses.
2.1 Number of Semester Hours Recommended for Undergraduale Minors
First,
