Problematic Sexual Behavior in Children and Youth
Non-Clinical Referral Tool

The Problematic Sexual Behavior in Children and Youth Non-Clinical Referral Tool (PSB-CY NCRT) is intended to assist DoDEA (Department of Defense Education Activity) and Child Development/Youth Program (CD/YP) personnel in determining if a referral or consult to FAP (Family Advocacy Program) is warranted based on the sexual behavior(s) exhibited by the child(ren) or youth. The NCRT also assists FAP personnel in establishing if a referred incident should be considered non-normative and if engagement of the MDT (Multi-Disciplinary Team) should be initiated.

The PSB-CY Non-Clinical Referral Tool Support Site is hosted by the Clearinghouse for Military Family Readiness at Penn State and is intended to support DoDEA, CD/YP, and FAP personnel in the training and implementation of the NCRT. The site includes the following: a Learning Module that describes implementation of the tool, the most current PDF Fillable form version of the PSB-CY NCRT, a Resources page that includes resources related to PSB-CY, and a Frequently Asked Questions section that provides information related to the NCRT implementation.

Clearinghouse professionals are available to support DoDEA, CD/YP, and FAP personnel via email (PSBToolSupport@psu.edu) or the phone helpline at 1-877-382-9185 weekdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. EST/EDT.
