Correctional staff are at the front lines of rehabilitation, and research is increasingly demonstrating the impact high quality staff interactions can have on recidivism. This skills-based training teaches staff a number of practices that they can use in their day to day supervision interactions that have been shown to increase the effectiveness of rehabilitative services and client supervision.
Training description:
- Research on effective interventions identifies a set of practices that have been shown to improve behavioral outcomes with clients and to reduce recidivism.

- The training curriculum includes a basic overview of these practices and teaches participants how to model, teach, and practice pro-social skills and behaviors with clients.
