]]>Training combined cognitive behavioral principles with motivational interviewing strategies and gave participants the knowledge and skills to administer an Employment Retention Inventory to connect offenders to services and programs that support the offenders' long-term attachment to the workforce. The training was created in response to research that suggests that unstable employment histories and low levels of personal, educational, and vocational achievement help predict continued criminal involvement for offenders. Research has shown that the work history for many offenders was fragmented prior to their initial contact with the criminal justice system and any effort to help offenders maintain their connection to the workforce warrants the implementation of innovative approaches to address the behavioral health of offenders classified as being at high risk for job loss.
