Description

In child sexual abuse cases the Non-offending Partners are frequently omitted from the formal assessment process, although they play a major role in the safety and psychological well-being of the victims and their siblings. In general, they are referred for parenting classes, parenting capacity assessments, and/or counseling, without a formal assessment of their knowledge, role, and attitudes regarding the sexual abuse.

Objectives

    • Discuss the decision-making progress of the nonoffender.
    • Review the formal assessment process
    • Apply information to case planning and treatment referrals
