An evaluation of the recidivism rates for 50 adolescent male rapists who had been sentenced to a state juvenile correctional facility was completed. All subjects in this study had committed a sexual assault against a person their age or older. A two-year follow-up of the subjects in this study found that five were reinvolved in a sexual assault. Additionally, 29 of the 50 subjects were convicted of additional charges. Of this, ten youths were placed under supervision and the other 19 subjects were placed in a correctional facility. The treatment program for perpetrators of serious sexual assault was considered to be effective in significantly reducing the likelihood of subjects being involved in another sexual assault within two years after completing the program. Additionally, the program was effective in breaking a pattern of criminal behavior in close to half of the subjects studied.
