Decades of experience demonstrate that aligning justice and behavioral health systems around evidence-based policies and practices offers the greatest promise of success. Carey Group is a leader in the implementation of evidence-based practices (EBP)—that is, strategies that have been demonstrated to improve outcomes while maximizing the investment of resources. We work with leadership, staff, and stakeholders to ensure they have the knowledge and skills needed to achieve their mission and maximize their opportunities for positive change.
Our evidence-based training and consulting services address the needs of criminal and juvenile justice system and behavioral health professionals.
Training is an essential tool for keeping staff, supervisors, leadership, and stakeholders up to date with emerging knowledge and expectations for improved outcomes.
Carey Group offers in-person, online, and self-directed courses on topics such as evidence-based practices, motivational interviewing, core professional competencies, case planning and management, continuous quality improvement, coaching, and the use of our behavior-change tools and supervisor resources.
