Summary of 2006 committee objectives:

In the past year our committee was able to provide training at the IPCSA Spring Conference by ILATSA President, Debra Nickerson, Psy.D.

Our members have provided a number of training topics including a collaborative effort with the Technology Committee that was presented at the IPCSA Fall Conference. Dialogue between committee members on how to effectively implement new sex offender management standards continues to take place.
