abstract="Although it is becoming increasingly important to integrate families of sexually abusive youth in treatment, there are many families who resist engagement.

In collaboration with a state sex offender management board, this qualitative study analyzed the perspectives of approved treatment providers (N = 19) on factors that deter family engagement. <br><br>FINDINGS revealed engagement is determined by detailed contexts and circumstances such as stress, preparedness, and subjective barriers.
