T6: Safety Planning for Children and Adolescents with Problematic Sexual Behaviors

Includes a Live Web Event on 05/13/2025 at 10:30 AM (EDT)

Only available as part of a package

It has long been thought that youth who engage in problematic sexual behavior (PSB) need intensive residential treatment. Best practices actually show that most youth with PSB can be treated on an outpatient basis while living at home or in the community with appropriate safety planning. In an effort to advocate for children and adolescents who engage in PSB to remain in the community, this workshop will explore effective safety planning strategies and components, including considerations for implementing a safety plan following intrafamilial sexual abuse.
