<DIV><SPAN class=270124516-30052001><FONT color=#0000ff>Let me disagree on what 
you learned about New York.&nbsp; In New York State court ordered services can 
be ordered without placement.&nbsp; Orders of supervision, including specific 
services and orders of protections can be ordered at the dispositional hearing 
of a neglect or abuse proceeding.&nbsp; Dispositional orders in New York are for 
a maximum initial period of twelve months and can be extended for cause&nbsp;in 
one year intervals.&nbsp; The orders of supervision are commonly used following 
a period of placement as a modification of an earlier&nbsp;placement 
order.&nbsp; Orders of protection can preclude any specific behavior;&nbsp; no 
corporal punishment, no drug use, no drug use in the presence of children, stay 
away orders for an individual, whatever the behavior the court objects to in the 
individual family's situation.&nbsp; The orders of supervision can be very 
specific or general depending on the family's need and the willingness of the 
court process to be clear or leave room for interpretation.&nbsp; Very specific 
orders&nbsp;can be&nbsp;problematic in more frequent need to modify orders as 
family situations change.&nbsp; General orders&nbsp;can be&nbsp;problematic in 
forcing compliance or success in services where resistance occurs.&nbsp; The 
legal art is&nbsp;in&nbsp;choosing an order that best assists a family towards 
successful completion of services&nbsp;or violation as 
appropriate.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

At about 04:19 PM 2/21/00 -0600, Lundgren, Susi said, and I answered:

It is an unusual notion, however, since all experts agree that there is no 
"cure" for a sex offender.  Under those circumstances, it is fairly clear 
that there is *no* "successful completion" of treatment - but rather only 
successful participation in treatment to this point.
See Hanson and Bussier, 1996, 1998.

It is also notable that risk factors such as denial, victim empathy and 
remorse do not clearly correlate with re-offending. The program that I work 
with does not emphasize these things, but rather focuses on the risk 
factors that do correlate with re-offending.
