The Association for the Treatment of Sexual Abusers (ATSA) is a non-profit, interdisciplinary organization that was incorporated in 1984 by a small group of clinicians in Oregon who were working with sex offenders. ATSA remains dedicated to principles that foster research and information exchange, further professional education, and advance professional standards and practice in the field of sex offender evaluation and treatment. ATSA is now an international organization with over one thousand members committed to the prevention of sexual assault through effective management of sex offenders. ATSA promotes the philosophy that empirically based assessment, practice, management, and policy strategies will: enhance community safety, reduce sexual recidivism, protect victims and vulnerable populations, transform the lives of those caught in the web of sexual violence, and illuminate paths to prevent sexual abuse. The ATSA offices are located at 4900 S.W. Griffith Drive, Suite 274, Beaverton, Oregon, 97005. The telephone number is 503-643-1023, fax is 503-643-5084, or you can email: ATSA @ATSA.com.
