Join other probation, reentry and other corrections professionals to build foundational skills through this comprehensive and interactive virtual training academy. Community-based corrections is the most significant criminal justice response to crime. According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics site, over 70% of all offenders are placed on community-based corrections and over 95% of all offenders will be released back into the community. Over the course of 20 weeks, you will examine traditional, evidence-based, victim-centered and trauma-informed approaches to community supervision and reentry. Course work is designed to support application techniques and case management concepts in the development of core supervisory skills to improve overall outcomes for victims/survivors, communities and offenders.
When working in the addiction field, we frequently encounter clients who appear unmotivated to change. During this webinar, we will explore the concept of motivation and provide you with practical skills to develop intrinsic motivation toward long-term behavior change.
Motivational Interviewing is a style of interaction that is client-driven and supports individuals in the healing and change process. There is significant research in the health, education and criminal justice fields that supports the use of motivational interviewing in addressing the needs of victim/survivors and offenders, providing support and helping to facilitate change. Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a trauma-informed interviewing/interacting technique that focuses on creating supportive, meaningful and strategic conversations. This advanced training will provide the context of evidence-based practices on how to have these conversations and will leave you with practical skills to engage in short and effective conversations to initiate, or facilitate, the process of behavior-change and effective support. This training will focus on change talk, working with resistance, and exploring and resolving ambivalence.

AMBER Alerts are activated in the most serious child-abduction cases.

Recognize the importance of bridging the gap between law enforcement and the community. Explain and understand how community members can assist during and before a missing or abducted child situation.
