Risk-Need-Responsivity and Behavioral Health Practices for Community Supervision

An estimated 1 in 69 adult U.S. residents were under community supervision at the end of 2021 (Bureau of Justice Statistics, 2023). Community supervision of justice involved individuals is an important component of the criminal justice system. This course equips Colorado parole officers, probation officers, and community correction workers with knowledge and skills to identify and address the behavioral health needs of individuals under supervision. Parole officers, probation officers, and community correction workers will examine how utilizing the Risk-Need-Responsivity (RNR) Model in combination with tailoring supervision strategies can reduce recidivism. By leveraging community health resources alongside the RNR Model, officers can more accurately match individuals to appropriate services, reduce recidivism, and support safer, more successful transitions back into the community. This course will have an emphasis on identifying the Need and Responsivity Principles for effective matching of services and resources. Topics include recognizing co-occurring mental health disorders, substance use disorders, and applying trauma-informed care strategies. Upon conclusion of the course, participants will be better prepared to promote recovery in community supervision settings.

Secure Firearm Storage Counseling for Suicide Prevention 2: How

This course is designed for behavioral health and medical providers who have a foundational understanding of secure firearm storage in the context of suicide prevention and wish to build proficiency and comfort in discussing secure firearm storage practices with patients at risk of suicide. The training will enable attendees to move beyond making basic recommendations and give them the knowledge, skills, and tools to engage in patient-centered counseling that encourages meaningful firearm-related behavior change. As attendees move through the course, they will examine potential reasons a person might have for owning and using firearms, the value they may place on their firearms, why they may store their firearms in certain ways, and why they may be reluctant or ambivalent about adopting secure firearm storage practices. Patient perception of firearm suicide risk will also be considered, and attendees will have the opportunity to explore and practice using strategies (e.g., patient-centered language and motivational interviewing) that can be leveraged to initiate conversations about secure firearm storage for suicide prevention and encourage patients to adopt new firearm storage practices. After completing this training, attendees will be better equipped to navigate these conversations, having learned and developed a counseling approach that recognizes and respects patients’ needs and values, draws on established behavior change frameworks (e.g., the Health Belief Model), and incorporates realistic expectations for patient behavior change.
