Abstract

[Many advances have led to progress in the field of assessment and treatment of people who have committed a sexual offence (PCSO). A significant advancement that efficiently guides rehabilitation is a set of principles called risk, need, and responsivity (RNR). RNR principles help to identify who should receive services, what factors should be targeted to reduce reoffending, and how services should be delivered to offenders. This chapter provides an overview of the RNR principles and its origins, and the rationale and need for implementing RNR principles in practice. In light of the challenges of adopting RNR principles, caveats related to translation and implementation are explored and steps that we can take to move the field forward by using RNR principles are discussed.]
