This 2-hour introductory course teaches justice system professionals the key principles of evidence-based practices: risk, need, responsivity, and effective intervention.

Learning Objectives:
- Describe the four key principles—risk, need, responsivity, and intervention—that research indicates are important for achieving risk reduction
- Understand how and when to effectively apply rewards and responses to non-compliance
- Indentify interventions that work best in helping people stay law-abiding, and why
- Learn policies and practices that can actually increase recidivism (i.e., do harm) and which approaches are more effective
