Training Description
Helping individuals to change their behaviors and maintain such changes is a difficult process, requiring a depth of understanding for those persons’ unique patterns of behavior which lead to their involvement in the justice system. Problem solving is a technique used to facilitate discussions about attitudinal and behavioral issues that may promote or impede progress in the reduction of recidivism risk. In this training, you will learn to facilitate the person’s “owning up to” their behavior, discussing issues that affect their responses, and identifying the patterns that lead to continued failure. Using these skills can result in managing compliance and the effective incentivization of positive outcomes.
