enough on its own terms then add the environment you are doing it in trust in professional expertise is eroding the 2024 edelman trust barometer found institutional trust falling into what researchers call the distrust zone across multiple sectors science is politicized evidence is contested practitioners in fields that touch public controversy find their clinical judgments dismissed before they are heard atsa members know this firsthand you work with people the public fears you apply a research base the public largely does not know exists and you do it inside systems that were often built on assumptions the evidence has since overturned that is an exhausting professional position and it is one most colleagues outside this field will never fully understand which is exactly why the colleagues inside it matter so much atsa s board recently discussed restoring trust in expertise a whitepaper on trust and professional membership published by association transformation one argument in it landed with particular force in a time of epistemic pollution the widespread contamination of public discourse with misinformation and low quality knowledge professional communities are not just a benefit they are a bulwark in a time of epistemic pollution a professional community is not just a benefit it is a bulwark that is what this association is in the most practical sense a community of people who have read the same research wrestled with the same clinical dilemmas and chosen to keep doing this work because it matters what that looks like in practice it looks like a colleague who can help you think through a difficult risk assessment because they have done hundreds of them it looks like a conference session where someone names a problem you thought was yours alone it looks like knowing that when you cite an atsa practice guideline in a treatment report or reference a position statement in a court proceeding you are drawing on work your peers built and vetted together the field s evidence base did not arrive fully formed it was produced by atsa members debated at atsa conferences published in sexual abuse and refined over decades of collective practice the whitepaper makes a point our field should take personally peer reviewed publication is one of the most powerful trust building tools a profession has a journal is not just a repository of knowledge it is an instrument of accountability when the science gets attacked that community and that record are what make it possible to defend the ask is simple stay connected engage with the research when it comes through show up at the conference answer when a colleague asks a question in a workgroup mentor someone earlier in their career who is learning right now what it costs to do this work with integrity the erosion of trust in expertise is real and it is not going away quickly what holds against it is not any single practitioner s credentials or confidence it is a community that keeps producing rigorous work supporting one another and refusing to lower the standard that is what atsa membership is for references edelman 2024 2024 edelman trust barometer edelman https www edelman com trust

years of atsa conferences our annual conference is ultimately about the people who make this community what it is each year we welcome first time attendees alongside members who have been part of atsa for decades to our knowledge no one has been part of that journey longer than jill levenson who has attended 33 consecutive atsa annual conferences we asked jill to reflect on what has kept her coming back year after year her reflections capture not only how our field has evolved but also the relationships shared learning and sense of community that continue to make gathering together so meaningful amber schroeder executive director atsa by jill levenson ph d lcsw in 1993 a flyer arrived at our agency announcing an atsa conference and inviting people to become members we didn t know much about the organization or the field at the time but we joined anyway and attended our first conference in 1994 in san francisco this was before online databases and instant downloads we spent hours in university libraries searching for journal articles making photocopies and trying to learn everything we could about sexual offense specific treatment we were reading the work of pioneers like richard laws william l marshall and gene abel then suddenly there they were standing in an elevator with us we were completely starstruck and the parc 55 hotel was the most glamorous hotel we d ever seen we nudged each other in disbelief that s the guy who wrote that article we just read faces you look forward to seeing again what struck us even more than their scholarship was how genuinely nice and approachable everyone was they patiently answered questions shared ideas and welcomed newcomers that spirit of openness has remained one of the defining characteristics of atsa acquaintances across the globe have become lifelong friends friendships built one conference at a time thirty three consecutive conferences later atsa continues to be the highlight of my professional year i come for the ever evolving science the thoughtful conversations the innovative ideas and the spirited debates that challenge us to think differently i come to reflect and connect with colleagues who understand the complexity of this work and who continually inspire me to grow the conversations between sessions matter as much as the sessions but i also come for the friendships over the years acquaintances across the globe have become lifelong friends there is something deeply comforting about being surrounded by people who share a commitment to compassion evidence and preventing harm we belong to a unique community that isn t always understood by others but that is united by a common purpose and of course i also come for the good food the fun the chance to visit new cities and the silly moments of camaraderie in a serious field good food good company and the camaraderie that carries us every conference is an opportunity to learn from one another mentor the next generation process shared experiences and continue shifting the paradigm toward approaches that are more effective more humane and more grounded in science collectively we advocate for public safety prevention healing accountability recovery restoration evidence based practice trauma informed care social justice and human rights for all over thirty three consecutive conferences atsa has been more to me than an annual meeting it has been my professional home a place where i ve learned taught questioned laughed led and perhaps most importantly found my people jill jill levenson ph d lcsw a longtime atsa member reflecting on 33 consecutive years of conferences posted by aniss benelmouffok at 12 59 pm no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest wednesday may 13 2026 what would the pitt look like in our field by amber schroeder executive director atsa i recently finished the latest season of the pitt and kept thinking about why it works so well it isn t just the pacing or the medical crises it s the way the show captures human complexity nobody is reduced to a stereotype the staff are competent but flawed patients are messy systems fail emotions leak into decision making ethical questions rarely have clean answers the show trusts the audience to sit with ambiguity instead of constantly reassuring them who s right and who s wrong while watching it i found myself wondering what would a show like this look like in our field not the sensationalized version built around monsters the real version it would look like clinicians sitting in their cars for ten extra minutes before going home trying to emotionally transition from hearing disclosures of sexual violence to helping their own kids with homework it would look like probation officers and therapists arguing over whether a client is destabilizing or simply terrified it would look like treatment teams debating a single sentence in a risk report because everyone in the room understands that one adjective can alter the trajectory of a person s life it would look like someone in our field missing a meeting because they spent the morning supporting the spouse of a former client who died by suicide someone who would ve been publicly reduced to an offender but who was also a partner a struggling person and one of the few non justice involved clients that clinician was treating and now the clinician is left carrying the questions this field quietly lives with every day did i miss something could the outcome have changed how do you hold grief accountability risk and humanity all at once that is what our field actually looks like a realistic show about sexual harm prevention wouldn t revolve around dramatic courtroom speeches or brilliant profilers solving crimes it would center on system strain burnout ethical ambiguity public fear and small victories nobody outside the field ever recognizes one episode would revolve entirely around whether someone should be returned to custody after a concerning disclosure half the team would argue community safety demands it the other half would argue it could increase long term risk nobody would fully know who was right another episode would follow a therapist trying to stop a family from forcing out their adolescent child after exhibiting problematic sexual behavior because homelessness and shame are risk factors too there would be no clean endings no perfect heroes just people trying to reduce harm with incomplete information inside systems that are emotionally and politically exhausting and importantly it would expose something deeply uncomfortable for the public many professionals in this field genuinely care about the people they work with not because they minimize harm but because they understand prevention requires engaging with human beings not simply condemning them they trust the evidence showing people are capable of change risk can be reduced and prevention is possible even in situations the broader public often views as hopeless that tension is the emotional core of this work we hold accountability and compassion at the same time we sit with victims and survivors families clinicians incarcerated people and communities carrying different forms of pain we know some people remain dangerous we also know hopelessness is not a prevention strategy there is something else the public rarely sees this field has an evidence base we know more than people think we do about risk reduction treatment engagement protective factors supervision strategies and prevention but evidence often struggles to compete politically with fear outrage and policies designed around what voters emotionally want to hear rather than what research supports that disconnect wears on people in this field most professionals doing this work aren t trying to win ideological battles they re trying to answer operational questions every day who is escalating who is isolating who lost housing who stopped coming to treatment who is too ashamed to disclose what they need help with who on staff is burning out who believes change is possible the pitt succeeded because it trusted audiences to tolerate complexity instead of constantly reassuring them who the heroes and villains were our field deserves that same honesty because sexual harm prevention isn t built in dramatic moments it s built in thousands of imperfect human interactions carried out by professionals working inside systems that ask them to absorb fear grief uncertainty and moral ambiguity every single day that s the real story
