Literature on the treatment of men and boys who sexually abuse
Thursday, 04 October 2007 23:20

The ACASSA newsletter 'Aware' n.15 contains as its feature item a literature review, 'Perspectives on the treatment of men and boys who sexually abuse'. It focuses directly on therapy and interventions with adults, boys and young men, but its author, Cameron Boyd, is aware of the problematic nature of approaches to this field. He sets out 'to highlight the relevance of a feminist-informed gender analysis of sexual offending' explaining that the challenge for treatment providers and researchers is 'to build upon these insights in working with boys and men who sexually abuse'.
