PROGRAM SYNOPSIS
.
As Ohio experiences an unprecedented housing crisis, criminal justice-involved individuals continue to face additional challenges and barriers in obtaining safe and affordable housing. The Ohio Community Corrections Association is partnering with the Coalition on Homelessness and Housing in Ohio (COHHIO) to offer a series of workshops designed to provide corrections professionals with the tools to help their clients more effectively navigate the housing services available throughout Ohio. This second workshop in the series will explore the use of Motivational Interviewing (MI) as a method to help clients think about, talk about, and move towards positive change. We will examine how people move toward making positive changes; how to utilize “change talk” efficiently and effectively; and the principles and strategies of MI. We’ll also discuss how and why MI can be effective in the context of housing for justice-involved individuals.
This training is geared toward case managers, probation officers, and others who assist criminal justice involved individuals in meeting their housing needs.
