Designed for behavioral health clinicians, this course examines practical, evidence-based approaches and strategies for managing antisocial tendencies among justice-involved individuals, including the “big four” criminogenic risks: antisocial cognition, antisocial behavior, antisocial personality pattern, and antisocial associates. Defined by the Risk-Need-Responsivity (RNR) model, these empirically validated risks have been found to have a strong relationship with criminal offending, and interventions targeting antisocial tendencies have demonstrated a positive influence on reducing violence and improving the quality of life for justice-involved people—as well as lowering their risk of recidivism.

For this reason, it is crucial for behavioral health clinicians to consider the unique challenges of working with clients with antisocial tendencies—especially those who meet the diagnostic criteria for antisocial personality disorder (ASPD)—and develop interventions that specifically address their needs. Through the provided materials and activities, this course will enable attendees to develop these skills so they can recognize, assess, and manage antisocial tendencies in justice-involved individuals, develop and implement effective treatment plans that incorporate criminogenic risks and needs, and collaborate with criminal justice professionals to mitigate common barriers and coordinate care.
