TRAINING OVERVIEW
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
The research on the principles of effective intervention, coupled with the most recent research on community supervision, provided the impetus for the development of a new model by the University of Cincinnati: Effective Practices in Community Supervision. The purpose of the EPICS model is to teach individuals working in a variety of community correctional settings how to apply the principles of effective intervention and core correctional practices to facilitate behavioral change in their clients. Providers are taught to increase dosage to higher risk offenders, stay focused on criminogenic needs, especially the thought-behavior link, and to use a social learning, cognitive behavioral approach to their interactions.
