Harmful sexual behaviour services in Victoria
There are harmful sexual behaviour (HSB) services right throughout Victoria.
HSB services are for children and young people who have engaged in harmful sexual behaviour. They provide responsive, developmentally appropriate treatment programs to address the harmful sexual behaviour and underlying harm they have experienced. They will work with the child and their families and carers to stop the behaviours, and reestablish age and stage appropriate behaviours.
You can find your local service below.
