Nonviolent Crisis Intervention
|
|
Crisis Prevention Institute (CPI): Nonviolent Crisis Intervention Training
Nonviolent Crisis Intervention (NCI) training is perfect for educators who directly intervene in crisis situations, teaching staff de-escalation techniques as well as restrictive and nonrestrictive interventions. Participants learn decision-making skills to match the level of the response to the risk of the crisis, focusing on the least-restrictive response to ensure the Care, Welfare, Safety, and Security SM of those in their care. This includes recognizing the stages of an escalating crisis and learning evidence-based techniques to appropriately de-escalate. NCI training emphasizes physical intervention as a last resort and appropriate to the level of risk.
Initial 2-day In-Person Training
Location: North County Regional Education Center (subject to change).
Time: 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
