About this title

Synopsis

"A start and perhaps a roadmap to the kind of treatment the developmentally disabled client population deserves."-- Developmentally Disabled Persons With Sexual Behavior Problems

Working with developmentally disabled persons presents unique challenges to therapists and staff in both residential and community-based settings. The need for understanding, knowledgeable, and communicative employees in such programs is crucial, especially when clients have sexually offended or exhibit sexually inappropriate behavior. Developmentally Disabled Persons with Sexual Behavior Problems compiles information for those working with developmentally disabled clients, reviewing literature and research in the field and offering theoretical and practical strategies for intervening with this population.

This comprehensive volume includes an examination of recidivism rates within the general population, forensic and staffing issues that arise in treatment, and the influence developmental disabilities have on sexual development. The author also includes clinical assessment tools, program forms, and mental and sexual health evaluations to help develop more effective programs.
