“…Multilevel repeated measures analyses showed significant gains were made in outcome criteria for all of these brief interventions. These positive findings were extended by findings of Roque and Lurigio (2009) who used the full set of six TICs as a collective ''treatment readiness'' intervention curriculum for probationers on a waiting list to enter formal treatment. Results showed this strategy was associated with significant probationer improvements in their formal treatment participation, retention, and completion subsequently.…”

“…Support for this type of “plug-and-play” application using multiple TICs in fact comes from a recent study by Roque and Lurigio (2009) using this same set of brief interventions with probationers awaiting placement in community-based drug treatment. In short, these TIC interventions were used as the curriculum for a low-intensity service intended to enhance admission and engagement rates for clients awaiting formal and more intensive treatment.…”

Finding brief effective treatments for criminal justice populations is a major public need. The CJ-DATS Targeted Intervention for Corrections (TIC), which consists of six brief interventions (Communication, Anger, Motivation, Criminal Thinking, Social Networks, and HIV/Sexual Health), were tested in separate federally-funded randomized control studies. In total, 1,573 criminal justice-involved individuals from 20 correction facilities participated (78% males; 54% white). Multi-level repeated measures analyses found significant gains in knowledge, attitudes, and psychosocial functioning (criteria basic to Knowledge, Attitude, and Practices (KAP) and TCU Treatment Process Models). While improvements were less consistent in criminal thinking, overall evidence supported efficacy for the TIC interventions.

“…These manual-guided interventions address improvements in areas such as sequencing stages of treatment based on readiness and motivation, applying client assessment information to care planning and progress monitoring, behavioral techniques for improving treatment participation, therapeutic engagement strategies, emotional self-management, dealing with thinking errors (e.g., criminal), communication skills, developing healthy relationships, sexuality, parenting, HIV/AIDS awareness, and preparing for relapse risks. They can be effectively grouped into customized and stage-sensitive “clusters” relevant to the treatment process model (Roque & Lurigio, 2009). Furthermore, all interventions incorporate TCU Mapping Enhanced Counseling, a graphical approach to organizing and communicating information within therapeutic settings.…”

Sustained and effective use of evidence-based practices in substance abuse treatment services faces both clinical and contextual challenges. Implementation approaches are reviewed that rely on variations of plan-do-study-act (PDSA) cycles, but most emphasize conceptual identification of core components for system change strategies. A 2-phase procedural approach is therefore presented based on the integration of TCU models and related resources for improving treatment process and program change. Phase 1 focuses on the dynamics of clinical services, including stages of client recovery (cross-linked with targeted assessments and interventions), as the foundations for identifying and planning appropriate innovations to improve efficiency and effectiveness. Phase 2 shifts to the operational and organizational dynamics involved in implementing and sustaining innovations (including the stages of training, adoption, implementation, and practice). A comprehensive system of TCU assessments and interventions for client and program-level needs and functioning are summarized as well, with descriptions and guidelines for applications in practical settings.
