Sex Offender Sentencing in Washington State: Does the Prison Treatment Program Reduce Recidivism?

Robert Barnoski

The 2004 Washington State Legislature directed the Washington State Institute for Public Policy to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the impact and effectiveness of current sex offender sentencing policies. Because this topic is extensive, we are publishing a series of reports.

This report estimates whether the Sex Offender Treatment Program (SOTP) reduces recidivism by comparing the recidivism rates of sex offenders who were willing but did not participate in SOTP with those who did participate in the program.
