520			_aThis article describes a New Zealand treatment pilot for high risk rape offenders delivered in 2006 to a group of 10 adult sex offenders in Auckland Prison. In the Adult Sex Offender Treatment programme each participant received around 285 hours of direct therapy over eight months, both group and individual, facilitated by Corrections Department psychologists. Specialist measures of change in behaviour and belief were used to assess the impact of the programme. Results showed that the programme offered a viable rehabilitation option for sexual offenders with adult victims, although refinements to the programme were indicated. Running further programmes demonstrated the need to provide more treatment places and a wider clinical staff base. The programme is now in two special treatment units (in two prisons) with plans to expand the programme into a further special treatment unit, eventually providing 30 therapy places a year for high risk rape offenders
