The Minnesota Sex Offender Program (MSOP) is a sex offense specific treatment program in a modified therapeutic community and secure setting that provides comprehensive services to 740 civilly committed clients. Services include sex offense specific treatment, education programming, therapeutic recreation, vocational programming, and volunteer services.
MSOP St. Peter is a residential treatment facility for clients who have been court-ordered to receive ongoing treatment in a secure setting. As clients progress in treatment, they may petition to transition to MSOP Community Preparation Services (CPS). Clients must petition the Special Review Board and Commitment Appeal Panel to be granted a transfer to CPS from inside the secure perimeter at MSOP St. Peter or Moose Lake campus. CPS is a less restrictive, unlocked residential setting on the grounds of the MSOP St. Peter campus located outside of the secure perimeter.
We are a national leader in the industry and are committed to implementing the latest research throughout all aspects of our program. CPS is designed to provide clients with opportunities to continue working on treatment, as well as offer new opportunities for deinstitutionalization and reintegration into the community.
