[NYAPRS Enews] GAINS Center: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Final Evidence Based Practice Webinar

[Briana Gilmore]

NYAPRS Note: The issue of mental health approaches to persons with criminal justice involvement is becoming an increasing issue for law and policy makers in NY and across the country, as more news and advocacy focuses on prisons as today’s psychiatric institutions. Mitigating trauma and recidivism for justice involved persons with diagnoses is also about responsive treatment, both preventative and as an interjection into a specific recovery process. Join the GAINS Center for the last in a series of expert webinars exploring the process of rehabilitation for this community.
