Abstract

The case management of individuals convicted of a sexual offense tends to be specialized and focused on the prevention of sexual recidivism, leaving little room for criminogenic risk and need factors that are critical for community reentry and reintegration. The current study examines the criminogenic risk and needs of those individuals coming back in the criminal justice system and their subsequent criminal recidivism.
