Description
This workshop will explore the “spirit” of motivational interviewing and how it can be an effective adjunct to addiction treatment with criminal justice populations. Discussed will be how this approach can effectively contribute to short-term goals of treatment initiation and retention, and its potential in affecting long-term goals of ongoing change and reduction in recidivism. Included will be an exploration of punishment vs. motivation throughout the criminal justice culture and the ensuing challenges facing clinicians. Research studies that demonstrate the effectiveness of MI with both incarcerated clients as well as those in community correction settings will be reviewed. Also explored will be the potential benefits of probation, parole, and correction officer training in motivational interviewing.

- Explore the use of motivational interviewing strategies with those diagnosed withsubstance use-disorders and/or those sentenced with substance use-related offenses.
