Description: Family treatment court (FTC) collaboratives frequently ask about ways to effectively respond to participant behavior. How can teams: 1) respond to individual circumstances, 2) support meaningful behavior change, and 3) promote stable recovery and family well-being? FTCs use responses such as child safety interventions, treatment adjustments, complementary services modifications, incentives, and other accountability methods. This session will explore family engagement strategies that improve well-being and ensure child safety while promoting parent accountability. Presenters will invite the audience to explore potential causes of participant behavior and how our responses affect the participant, their family, and their engagement.
Learning Objectives:- Explain behavior change research associated with recovery and court processes
- Describe the array of responses available to improve and support parent, child, and family functioning through behavior change
- Learn key strategies to support behavior change associated with long-term recovery and family well-being
