Thank you for your expressed interest in the Association for the Treatment and Prevention of Sexual Abuse’s Research Grant Program. This year, ATSA will provide funding for grants designated as student research. The total amount of grant monies available is $15,000. Applications requesting any amount up to this limit will be considered. More than one application can be funded until the full $15,000 has been awarded.
The Grant Program has been established to fulfill the organization’s commitment to promoting research on the causes and treatment of sexual offending. The Pre-doctoral Research Grant also fulfills ATSA’s commitment to encouraging and the training of new investigators. ATSA believes that original research is vital to the continued growth and advancement of the field and is eager to provide new investigators with the resources to undertake promising research projects. The ATSA research program encourages and supports all research on sexual aggression including research on the assessment, management, and treatment of identified sexual offenders, on the assessment of risk for re-offending, and on the treatment of the victims of sexual abuse. During the current granting cycle, however, ATSA is especially interested in research proposals that target the causes of sexually abusive behavior, the identification of characteristics that predispose individuals to perpetrate such abuse, and the investigation of the optimal intervention methods for preventing the occurrence of sexual abuse.
The funding is intended to support research costs other than the student’s own time. For example, the costs could include travel to meet participants, advertisements, participant fees, and payments to others for help with the research project (e.g., data entry). Direct payment to the grant recipient, including “buy-out” of academic duties, is not an allowable expense.
Grant applications must be received by May 31, 2022 .    E-mail (awards@atsa.com) a cover letter containing a physical address, e-mail address, and telephone number where you can be reached through the end of July.

Definitive information
Sexual Abuse provides a forum for the latest original research and scholarly reviews on both clinical and theoretical aspects of sexual abuse. Unlike other publications that present a mix of articles on sexual abuse and human sexuality in general, Sexual Abuse is the only one to focus exclusively on articles related to sexual offending, thoroughly investigating its causes, consequences and treatment strategies. The in-depth studies provide essential data for those working in both clinical and academic environments, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and therapists/counselors, as well as corrections officers and allied professionals.
Comprehensive coverage
This respected quarterly, formerly Annals of Sex Research, presents contemporary studies encompassing the assessment and treatment of the sexual offender and the effects of sexual abuse on victims and families. The peer-reviewed contributions foster a better understanding of all aspects of sexual abuse and advance the scientific framework that will guide professionals in addressing salient clinical and theoretical issues. Announcements of upcoming trainings, Point/Counter Point articles and Letters to the Editor round out the journal’s extensive coverage of the field.
Expert editorial direction
An expanded editorial board ensures the rapid publication of all submitted articles, including more studies presented at the Annual Conference of the Association for the Treatment of Sexual Abusers. These eminent clinicians from a variety of disciplines represent different medical and mental health institutions, universities, and private organizations in the United States, Canada, and New Zealand.

Kasia Uzieblo
The annual ATSA conference has long been a
time to come together, reconnect, establish new connections, partnerships, and
develop new ideas and plans. This year’s conference was no different; except
for the fact that it was. This was the first in-person conference that ATSA has
held since 2019 in Atlanta, which meant that the reconnection was more powerful
and relevant. Although the conference was online for the previous two years
there is nothing like seeing people in person, attending sessions live,
debating, discussing, catching up, and planning. The conference this year had excellence
attendance with over 1,200 attending over four days (including the pre-conference
workshops). Participants came from a range of countries including, but not
limited to, the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, UK, France, Norway,
Denmark, the Netherlands, and Belgium to name a few. We will now look at each
of our reflections on the conference and standout moments.
For Kieran
the standout moment of the conference was
the ability to reconnect with ATSA colleagues. This stood out more than most of
the sessions and papers that he attended. The conference reignited the
importance of collaboration, especially international collaboration, and the
opportunity for people to come together and forge new paths. Additionally, the
Keynotes by Apryl Alexander and Kelly Socia where standout performances. Their
deliveries were powerful and commanding and their content powerful. Both focused
on the power of truth at the individual and societal levels, as well as the
need to engage, question, and step up. The conference had a range of posters, presentations,
seminars, and workshops that covered everything from prevention, risk
assessment, treatment, and desistance; it focused on the individual differences
of many of the service users that we treat as well as support. The conference
highlighted that sexual abuse is a global issue that needs global thought and
collaboration that results in a nuance, globally informed response.
For David the standout moments of the conference included Drew Kingston and Liam Marshall
provided an excellent pre-conference title on Compulsive Sexual Behavior
Disorder. It is one agreed-upon term signaling a condition that has gone by
many names over the years. Drew Kingston offered an excellent historical
overview of the research and Liam Marshall offered ideas on treatment. As is
often the case, what made it an excellent workshop was what was not said: All
too often, presentations on this topic can become mired in the personal beliefs
and moral judgments of the presenter. While no one is unbiased, especially when
it comes to sexuality, Dr.’s Kingston and Marshall provided a refreshingly
balanced overview of the issues at stake.
Dr. Alissa Ackerman gave an
unforgettable talk on involving the “authors of sexual harm” – those who have
sexually abused others – in restorative justice efforts. After providing an
overview of restorative justice and how she has worked within it, she discussed
topics such as processes for how these authors can make amends. As she often
does, Dr. Ackerman shared how her own history of victimization led her to share
her experiences with others, including in treatment groups for individuals who
have abused others. As one might imagine, these can be powerful experiences
that leave virtually no one unmoved. Dr. Ackerman’s work and charismatic style
are a reminder that practicing restorative justice, and the accountability
processes within it, can be very difficult work indeed.
For Kasia
the standout moments of the conference included: The conference experience was again wonderfully diverse. As every
year, it is enormously difficult to choose only a few items from the conference
program. But what has stayed with me most of all is that feeling that we are
more committed than ever to sexual abuse prevention. In doing so, new paths are
being explored and we are clearly also taking the time to critically reflect on
our current knowledge, on where things need to be improved, and on what we do not
yet know.
Take risk assessment, for example. A
topic that has dominated our field in recent years. Although several sessions
focused on the important topic of accuracy, the gaps in our knowledge regarding
risk assessment as well as the implementation of the tools were also
extensively discussed. For instance, Maaike Helmus, Seung Chan Lee, and others
raised the importance of cross-cultural comparisons regarding – for example – the
accuracy of risk assessment tools. Differences are indeed found that may have
negative implications for – for instance - already generally disadvantages
minorities. A thoughtless application and interpretation of risk assessment
outcomes within specific ethnic groups (among others) is clearly inappropriate
and potentially harmful. However, more research is needed to assess how to deal
with these differences in practice.
What I also strongly appreciated was the
attention given to the person exhibiting deviant sexual interests and/or
behaviors as such. This included extensive consideration of the psychosocial
well-being of this group and the impact of social and self-stigma by Sara
Jahnke, Nick Blagden, Maggie Ingram, and several others. In addition, several
speakers (e.g., Caoilte O Ciardha and Gaye Ildeniz) delved into the
help-seeking behaviour of this group, examining what factors facilitate or
hinder this behavior. These sessions provided insights that are crucial for all
professionals working on prevention, but certainly also for preventive projects
such as Stop it Now! and Circles of Support and Accountability, which were also
highlighted extensively during the conference. Various sessions also herald an
exciting time in terms of the treatment of people who have committed sexual
offences and/or are struggling with deviant sexual interests. For example,
Eveline Schippers explored a crucial question of how sexual deviance develops
and how we can use this knowledge in treatment. Wineke Smid, Ross Bartels, and
Nina ten Hoor explored the implementation of EMDR treatment in these groups.
Franca Cortoni, Michael Miner, and Ian McPhail described how they aim to
unravel the black box for us by finding better ways to identify what changes are
elicited by our treatment programs and whether these changes are indeed related
to a reduced recidivism risk. I
am already extremely curious to see what new insights all these research projects
will bring at the next ATSA conference.
Despite
all this enthusiasm from researchers and professionals that I was able to
experience once again, my spirits did sink a little at the end when Allyn
Walker took the stage. Walker described the horror they h
