Treating adolescent sexual abusers in the context of the community is not a new phenomenon, but research suggests as states revise their way of providing residential treatment services to adolescents with sexual abusive behaviors, there is a need to better understand how and when to treat this difficult population with a community treatment model that ensures best practice approaches that provides tested and proven treatment modalities for adolescent sexual abusers who are provided community-based residential treatment services. This guide for treating adolescent sexual abusers addresses that question and explains the role of community-based residential treatment programs to ensure quality-tested and proven clinical interventions and the safety of others in the community. All the case studies that I have included in this guide for residential treatment with children and adolescents who sexually abuse have come from my twenty-year experience, research, and personal conversations with adolescent sexual abusers. In consideration of the privacy of those individuals, given names and identifying circumstances have been changed, thus such names used in the case studies does not represent an actual client I worked with during the past twenty years.

"This is a well written and nicely organized book that can be both a helpful handbook for clinicians just starting to do group treatment for young victims of sexual abuse as well as a terrific resource for useful group treatment activities for the more experienced clinicians. It addresses important issues in the treatment of sexual abuse and offers suggestions and hints when using different activities, as well as discusses potential problems for each activity. The book is full of examples taken from actual groups and includes materials to use for both support and therapy groups for boys and girls, ages four to eighteen. As someone who has provided group treatment for many years, I found this to be a comprehensive book that successfully incorporates treatment issues for both children and their parents with great new and practical ideas for group treatment." --Kerry J. Todd, MSW Children′s Response Center, Bellevue, Washington Group work is particularly effective with child sexual assault victims because it breaks down their feelings of isolation, builds social skills, teaches appropriate boundary settings, and helps them realize they are normal. This easy-to-follow manual presents techniques for working with groups of children who have been sexually abused. It begins with an overview of the theory and literature of group therapy with children and then offers seven sections of psychosocial skill-building techniques: trust-building, self esteem, identifying and expressing feelings, healing the inner child, relationships, boundary setting, and prevention skills. It concludes with sample outlines for conducting 10-week groups and a bibliography of information on sexual assault. It is directed to mental health professionals who work with sexually abused children, school counselors and psychologists, workers in group homes, and advanced students in the mental health fields. It will also be helpful to early childhood educators and therapists working with any children, since many of the techniques can be utilized with children of divorce or in bereavement and general self esteem groups.

Staff training, development and treatment outcome evaluation are also included. In the Preparing for Treatment section, the book discusses how to translate the needs of sexually aggressive youth into a program model. In its Providing Treatment section there are descriptions of therapeutic, milieu, and specialized interventions. Finally, in a Supporting Treatment section, guidance is given to improve outcome evaluation efforts, staff selection, and training.
