The Struggle (And Solution) Is Real: Understanding the Impediments of Change From the Eyes of Impacted Individuals and Line Staff

SESSION INFO

Monday, August 29, 2022
2:15 PM - 3:15 PM
Session Type: Workshop

People are talking about the evolution of community supervision and the value of reforms. However, many of the people driving this conversation are chiefs and other decision-makers, who, let's face it, are often far away from the direct implementation. Understanding this, we commissioned nationwide research to better understand the challenges faced by line staff and clients to incorporate new initiatives such as modern technology and evidence based practices. In this conversation, we’ll both share findings from our study as well as get real life input from people on the front-lines of these changes: line staff and clients.
