Presentation •
What can court teams or court-based practitioners do to create an environment that encourages participants/defendants to comply with conditions of supervision and treatment plans?
•
What are some processes for identifying/developing appropriate incentives and sanctions for your target population? What are some examples of incentives and sanctions from other programs?
As part of its technical assistance under BJA’s Criminal Justice/Mental Health Collaboration Program, the CSG Justice Center Consensus Project collects sample program manuals from around the country, including lists of incentives/sanctions.
