Motivational Interviewing, Screening, & Brief Intervention (MISBI) is defined as a form of collaborative conversation for strengthening a person's own motivation and commitment to change. It is a person-centered counseling style for addressing the common problem of ambivalence about change by paying particular attention to the language of change. It is designed to strengthen an individual's motivation for and movement toward a specific goal by eliciting and exploring the person's own reasons for change within an atmosphere of acceptance and compassion.
Municipal court employees communicate with defendants on a daily basis. MISBI is an innovative method of talking with them that seeks to change their mindset and attitude with the end goal of preventing re-offending.
Do not miss this excellent opportunity to learn this extremely valuable and effective skill! There is no registration fee. In-depth MISBI course materials will also be provided.
