Alcohol Monitoring Solutions in High-Risk High Need DUI Populations
SESSION INFO
Wednesday, August 25, 2021
11:00AM - 12:00PM
Session Type: Workshop
Research has shown that effective supervision practices can lead to changed behavior. When community supervision works within the scope of evidenced based practices, DUI/DWI recidivism rates are reduced. This workshop will discuss the importance of using validated DUI assessment tools. This information can then be used to effectively implement alcohol monitoring technology solutions for effective treatment and supervision when working with the high-risk DUI population. Attendees will walk away with an understanding of how to better define the risk characteristics of this population, the importance of using a validated DWI assessment tool to capture risks and needs, and how to concentrate on the individual, not the offense through effective alcohol monitoring and other tools.
