Title: Preliminary Recidivism Rates: The Twin Rivers Sex Offender Treatment Program (Revised)

Summary: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This study is a preliminary estimate of the recidivism rates of sex offenders who have completed the Sex Offender Treatment Program (SOTP) at the Washington State Department of Corrections' Twin Rivers Corrections Center. Estimated recidivism rates of these offenders are compared with the rates of a group of released sex offenders who did not receive sex offender treatment during incarceration. Recidivism is defined as a re-arrest for a felony offense, and is grouped into one of three categories: sex offense, violent offense, and non-violent offense. In order to be selected for the treatment program, sex offenders must meet the following four requirements: - Voluntary participation - An I.Q. of 80 or above - Admission of guilt - At least one year remaining in prison Because of these requirements, there may be significant differences between the treatment group and the comparison group that result from the selection process and are unrelated to the effects of the SOTP.
