ISTI Book Release:

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT CLERGY SEXUAL MISCONDUCT

by Elisabeth A. Horst

Elisabeth A Horst, Ph.D., is a licensed psychologist in private practice in Minneapolis and a member of the board of the Interfaith Sexual Trauma Institute, Collegeville, Minnesota.  She frequently works with victims of sexual abuse and other traumas. 

Clergy sexual misconduct devastates the lives of its victims and tears apart the fabric of faith communities.  The harm done escalates when those involved--victims, offenders, congregants, church leaders--fail to understand who is responsible, why it hurts, and what steps to take for healing and prevention.  Questions and Answers about Clergy Sexual Misconduct presents a brief overview of common misunderstandings and offers clear and understandable explanations of the basic issues and dynamic involved.
