How Do Well-Intentioned Implementations of Treatment Programs Succeed or Fail?
This webinar is for professionals or individuals interested in learning about implementing Motivational Interviewing and other behavioral change techniques.
Getting implementation right seems simple at first: take what works in one treatment setting and apply it in another. But success is never guaranteed: challenges lurk in every corner. Implementing best practices can become especially tricky with individuals whose actions have caused harm to others.
This webinar conversation focuses on Norbert Ralph’s experiences implementing Aggression Replacement Training and his Being a Pro curriculum in multiple settings. It also offers observations from a recent paper on implementing the Good Lives Model and other efforts with Motivational Interviewing.
