Treatment Programs (SOTP-NR). Currently, Federal Medical Center (FMC) Devens,Massachusetts is the only institution with the SOTP-R. Five SOMP institutions offer the SOTP­NR.<strong>The</strong> Residential Sex Offender Treatment Program (SOTP-R): is a high intensity programdesigned <strong>for</strong> high risk sexual offenders (ordinarily, inmates with multiple sex offenses, or ahistory of contact sexual offenses). <strong>The</strong> SOTP-R is a unit-based program with a cognitivebehavioralemphasis. <strong>The</strong> cohousing of SOTP-R participants permits the implementation of amodified therapeutic community. <strong>The</strong> SOTP-R is offered at FMC Devens. <strong>The</strong> program isdesigned to be 12 to 18 months in duration.<strong>The</strong> Non-residential Sex Offender Treatment Program (SOTP-NR): is a moderate intensityprogram designed <strong>for</strong> low to moderate risk sexual offenders. A significant number of inmateswho volunteer <strong>for</strong> SOTP-NR are first-time offenders serving a sentence <strong>for</strong> an Internet sex crime.<strong>The</strong> SOTP-NR shares the SOTP-R's treatment philosophy <strong>and</strong> program materials, but lacks thefrequency of treatment groups <strong>and</strong> the program duration of the SOTP-R. In addition, becauseSOTP-NR participants reside in the general population, there is no modified therapeuticcommunity. All SOMP institutions offer the SOTP-NR. <strong>The</strong> typical duration of the SOTP-NR is9-12 months.Community Treatment Services: Inmates completing the SOTP-NR <strong>and</strong> the SOTP-R areexpected to participate in community treatment services (if they receive community placement).Community treatment services are group or individual sessions provided on an outpatient basisby a contracted treatment provider. Participants will be expected to attend these services while inRRC <strong>and</strong> on home confinement. Inmates with a requirement to participate in sex offendertreatment while on Supervised Release will ordinarily continue with the same treatment vendorupon transition to USPO supervision.SOMP Evaluations: SOMP staff conduct intake screenings on all arriving sex offenders. <strong>The</strong>yalso conduct Initial Risk Assessments <strong>and</strong> Discharge Reports on inmates releasing to thecommunity.Specialized Correctional Management: SOMP institutions may impose CorrectionalManagement Plans (CMP) on sex offenders who engage in risk relevant behavior. Risk relevantbehavior refers to conduct related to a sexual offender's history that indicates a risk of futuresexual offending upon release (e.g., collecting sexual pictures of children; attempting to contactpotential child victims).Population Management: To encourage voluntary participation in treatment <strong>and</strong> minimizeprotective custody lockups, at least 40% of the inmates in the general population at SOMPinstitutions have a history of sexual offense. SOMP institutions may accommodate referrals ofinmates who are unable to remain in general population due to their sexual offense.Commitment <strong>and</strong> Treatment Program (CTP): <strong>The</strong> Adam Walsh <strong>Child</strong> Protection <strong>and</strong> SafetyAct requires the Bureau to review releasing sex offenders <strong>for</strong> possible certification as sexuallydangerous persons. <strong>The</strong> Bureau has designated FCI Butner as the facility where certified,55
