For well over a decade, the Mid-Valley Student Threat Assessment Team has been well-functioning entity focused on the threat of violent behavior. In 2008, Salem-Keizer Public Schools created a parallel model to address Problematic Sexual Behavior (PSB) within a student population K-12 through a normative versus non-normative sexual development lens, the Sexual Incident Response Committee (SIRC). Built from a collaborative, multi-agency structure, the team operates a regional system that serves school districts and the community. This two and a half day training offers expertise to other professionals interested in developing a sexual misconduct threat assessment system through the examination of research, best practice, case studies, small group lab experiences and participation in the Mid Valley SIRC multi-agency meeting. Throughout the two and a half-day course, a multidisciplinary team (education, law-enforcement, mental health, campus security, juvenile parole and probation) will present the following:
- The basics of problematic sexual behavior, including a survey of the research that addresses sexual trauma, abuse prevention and sexual harm behavior in youth
- The intersection between sexual misconduct threat response efforts and Title IX policies
- The application of the research and recommendations in the use of K-12 and community sexual misconduct threat response protocols to establish intervention, supervision and support plans to mitigate further sexual harm to others
- Training on the steps and developmental procedures necessary to implement a successful multi-agency sexual harm threat assessment and management system in K-12 school districts within the community
- Audience participation exercises addressing a full spectrum of problematic sexual behaviors, including sexually reactive behavior (often observed in elementary school children), sexual harassment, sexualized behavior with a nexus to special education disability and adolescent criminal sexual behavior
