Sex Offenders

California has implemented structures and requirements to reduce the re-offense risk of registered sex offenders. State law establishes that all registrants on state parole or county probation be managed within the “Containment Model” and required to enter and successfully complete a sex offender treatment program certified by CASOMB.

Treatment Planning

Upon admission to the LPSSOS, an individualized treatment plan will be developed for each participant and updated every 90 days thereafter. During the treatment planning process, clients will always be afforded the opportunity to provide input regarding their treatment plan goals, objectives, needs, strengths, and weaknesses. The treatment plan is to be reflective of the clients needs as they relate to treatment as well as other empirically supported risk factors associated with sexual offending addressed in the material covered during the particular 90 day period . A copy of the signed treatment plan will be provided to the client.

Successful Treatment

(1) accepting responsibility for my offense behaviors.
(2) developing a supervision network of carefully selected family and/or friends who can help me with my recovery; (3) changing thinking patterns that contributed to my offenses.

(6) improving social skills related to my offending behavior such as anger management, conflict resolution, self-esteem. alcohol and drug abuse, and stress management; and
