Faces of Devereux
Introducing...

Meet Steve Kaplan, Devereux Florida's resident expert in assessing and treating children and adolescents with sexually reactive and sexual offending behaviors. With almost twenty years experience and having worked over 1,000 cases, Mr. Kaplan is well regarded across the state for his success in this highly specialized area. Kaplan strongly believes that child and adolescent offenders are "the most treatable" of the offending population. The outcome data supports that thought, as Kaplan reports a 95% success rate for youth who succeed through his program. When asked what makes him so successful with this population, Kaplan modestly replies that it is "working for a great organization like Devereux" that has helped pave the way for so many youth. "Devereux can offer services that no other provider can, from the variety of placement options, to the quality of the psychiatric services, to the diversification of funding options, Devereux is different from the rest."
