Abstract
Services to perpetrators of child sexual abuse have been located primarily in larger urban centers. There has been a relative lack of services to family violence offenders, in general, and sex offenders, in particular, in rural Canada. This paper presents a model for sex offender treatment which has emerged out of a collaboration between federal and provincial justice agencies and a day hospital based in a rural mental health center. A preliminary group process evaluation is also included.
