ISSUP, in collaboration with ICATI, presents an ATI webinar on SUD Treatment for Persons in the Justice System.
Treatment, care, and accountability are effective Alternatives to Incarceration (ATI) that can reduce drug use and crime. This webinar will explore specialized evidence-based substance use treatment approaches for use in the criminal justice system, that are designed to interrupt the rapid cycling of persons who have substance use disorders.
At the end of the webinar, participants will:
1. Learn about key elements and techniques of screening and assessment for behavioural health disorders in the justice system, including addressing criminal risk and needs.
2. Understand substance use treatment approaches that are effective and ineffective for criminal justice populations.
3. Identify specialised cognitive and behavioural treatment approaches for use in the justice system, including strategies to address criminal thinking.
4. Become familiar with medical treatments for substance use disorders, including detoxification protocols and medications.
Intended audience: Justice (law enforcement, prosecutors, defence counsel, magistrates, judges, probation, parole, corrections), health (medical, substance use treatment, mental health, pharmacology), and professionals who are interested in developing ATI initiatives are invited to participate.
