Title: Te Whakakotahitanga: An Evaluation of the Te Piriti Special treatment Programme for Child Sex Offenders in New Zealand
Summary: This study represents an attempt to evaluate the Maori cultural component of the Te Piriti Special Treatment Unit, a unit aimed at providing a treatment program to all offenders in order to reduce sexual re-offending against children. There were two specific areas of interest: firstly, to assess the impact of the use of cultural components on the reoffending rate of sexual re-offending against children by Maori participants, and secondly to ascertain the degree to which processes and cultural systems have been successfully integrated into the program for Maori.
