Networking at PRIMA’s conference Lisette was introduced to Texas’s ‘SORM’ website https://www.sorm.state.tx.us/ where she was able to find the state’s guidelines on risk management.  

The website has sections and guidelines broken down into a variety of content which may be helpful if you are new to the risk management world and/or helpful if you are seasoned validating how your program functions or could run. 

Key components of designing a program
- What is the benefit of the agency?

In this episode of PRIMA Podcasts, Angelique Dale shares some methods that may be employed by organizations in order to manage the risk of sexual abuse. Angelique indicates that changes in how organizations approach and deal with these risks have not been as radical as one would hope, despite the fact that incidents of this nature are constantly being reported by the media.

This may be attributed to the fact that very few offenders get caught.
