The Community Sex Offender Group Work Programme (C- SOGP) - (Accredited)
Over the course of the last Annual Reporting period 01.04.08 - 31.03.09, there have been twenty-five referrals to the Programme Delivery Team ( PDT) in the Ayrshire Partnership area for inclusion in the Community Sexual Offending Groupwork Programme (C- SOGP). Of these, six individuals were not suitable for the programme and therefore nineteen men commenced the Induction Stage of the programme during this period.
Three induction groups commenced to accommodate these men. Sixteen men completed this stage of the programme and, in accordance with accreditation standards, subsequently completed psychometric assessments in order to inform the next stage of the treatment process. One individual is required to undertake work with a PDT facilitator and his case manager in order to complete the Induction module. Two men were de-selected from the programme during their induction group. A Core Group and a Relapse Prevention programme are being planned for the induction participants' next stage of treatment.

Plans for the implementation of C- SOGP in Dumfries and Galloway have progressed over this period with the recruitment of a further C- SOGP facilitator and subsequent C- SOGP facilitator training taking place which included three members of the PDT based in Dumfries and Galloway. These individuals have also recently undertaken training for the administration of the STEP Battery of Psychometric tests. In order for implementation plans to progress further team members are required to undertake C- SOGP Case Manager training which is scheduled for July 2009. Suitable candidates for an Induction Module have been identified and Case Management work has commenced with them. It is anticipated that following completion of the aforementioned Case Manager training the first Induction group will commence in August 2009.
