Matrix Recovery Program Training for Justice-Involved Populations Feb 11-12

Increase positive treatment outcomes

Decrease recidivism rates

If you work with justice-involved individuals, you have probably heard these statements, or said them yourself when frustrated:

  • “They are only here because they are mandated.”
  • “They are not motivated.”
  • “They have not hit rock bottom yet.”


These beliefs are understandable, but these philosophies are outdated. They are not supported by evidence, and they do not improve outcomes or reduce recidivism. 

At Clare | Matrix Training Institute, we are very clear:

  • Mandated does not mean unmotivated
  • Compliance is not the same as engagement
  • The right treatment at the right time increases successful treatment outcomes

When treatment focuses only on rule enforcement, the outcomes are predictable:

  • Early dropout
  • Technical violations
  • Low completion rates
  • Clients cycling back through the systems

When providers are equipped with the right engagement skills, structure, and evidence-based interventions, something different happens:

  • Retention improves
  • Meaningful compliance increases
  • Recidivism goes down
  • Clients develop real skills that support recovery and a pro-social life

 

Readiness is not something justice-involved clients must bring with them. Readiness is built through effective treatment, including:

  • Consistent structure 
  • Clear expectations
  • Skill development
  • Respectful, engaging relationships


Justice-involved clients are navigating:

  • Early cognitive impairments
  • Mistrust
  • Trauma
  • Real legal and personal consequences tied to participation

 

The path to better outcomes is clear:

  • Engagement builds retention
  • Retention builds skills
  • Skills reduce recidivism and return to use

 

If people do not stay in treatment, nothing changes.


The Matrix Recovery ProgramTM for Justice Populations addresses both substance use and the behaviors that lead to justice involvement through a comprehensive, integrated approach. 

It is also rare that someone needing treatment only has a SUD. We use our world-recognized program to move individuals forward in their recovery thru comprehensive strategies. We are also adding new components to address additional needs. 

This training provides practical, immediately usable tools, including:

  • Engagement strategies for mandated clients
  • How language shapes identity and behavior
  • Skill-based interventions that support lasting change
  • Understanding how clients process information under coercion and stress
  • How to implement the right treatment at the right time and place
  • How to change attitudes and values to motivate and change behavior
  • How to adapt treatment based on brain based approaches

Our goal is simple:

  • Better outcomes for providers
  • Better lives for clients
  • Safer communities
  • Teach clinicians skills they need to improve care and change client behavior
