Self-Directed Cognitive-Behavioral Resources: A Valuable Tool in your CBT Toolbelt
SESSION INFO
Wednesday, August 25, 2021
11:00AM - 12:00PM
Session Type: Workshop
Due to a number of societal factors, there has never been a more important time for community correction departments to consider how they are meeting the cognitive programming needs of each of their clients. In a period of increased time and workload demands on officers and departments, alternative evidence-based programming options that increase efficiency and effectiveness will be vital to producing desired outcomes. It is critical for departments to ensure that they can provide CBT programming solutions in a variety of formats to help eliminate gaps in services. It is also essential to have scalable programming options that can increase and decrease dosage according to the criminogenic risk factors and needs of each individual.
How can departments standardize and individualize CBT programming at the same time? What kind of CBT Programming technology solutions provide the most value to community correction departments? These and other important questions will be discussed and answered. A county probation department will be co-presenting to share how a self-directed CBT Program has benefited their department.
