Decision-makers in law enforcement, child welfare, schools, business, mental health, and legal fields are frequently confronted with the need to make critical decisions regarding an individual’s dangerousness or risk of harm. This includes risk to self or others, the workplace or school, or future risk of offending or re-offending. Professional risk assessments are based on state-of-the-art technology and behavioral science that address decision-makers’ concerns about community, safety, and liability. Risk assessments are applicable in a variety of clinical and legal settings: restraining order hearings, bail and pretrial release settings, sentencing mitigation, and post-conviction civil commitment settings.

• Sex Offender Assessments
