Participants gain an understanding of the importance and relevance of the Principles of Effective Intervention (PEI) – risk, need, responsivity, and fidelity – to their work in criminal and juvenile justice. Our PEI training is a pre-requisite to the majority of our other trainings, and is often delivered in combination with other individual trainings.
Training description:
- Rehabilitation programs and services are most effective when they are implemented and operated according to the Principles of Effective Intervention (PEI): risk, need, responsivity, and fidelity.
- Decades of research have demonstrated that when these principles are adhered to, recidivism is reduced and the likelihood for positive behavioral change is increased.
- During this training, participants will gain an understanding of the importance of adherence to these principles at all stages of the criminal justice process through interactive discussion, activities, and skills.
Audience: Tailored to a variety of audiences including judges, attorneys, community supervision officers, institutional staff, case managers, and program staff
