About Family Sexual Abuse Treatment

Family Sexual Abuse Treatment (FSAT) is a unique agency designed to coordinate and support efforts to provide efficient, comprehensive, community based treatment for incest families. FSAT originated to avoid delays in service and interagency conflict and misinformation which can result in ineffective treatment. One of a few programs that makes extensive use of already existing resources in the public and private sector, it relies on a minimal amount of public monies in providing a comprehensive treatment service.
