Synopsis

Created in partnership with the Minnesota Department of Corrections, A New Direction (AND) is a flexible, evidence-based, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) curriculum that treats addiction in justice-involved clients and is proven to reduce recidivism. The updated and revised curriculum is divided into seven core topics, with all new companion videos and a Facilitator Guide to better serve clients.

This module, along with the Alcohol and Other Drug Education and Socialization modules, typically follows Introduction to Treatment. Justice-involved clients learn to identify the distorted thinking patterns at the root of substance use disorder and criminal behavior. By being aware of their thought patterns, clients are able to replace those distorted thoughts and make healthier choices. Workbooks include quick review exercises to reinforce lessons, reflection exercises that bridge content with real-life experience, and Thinking Reports to ensure treatment methods are part of ongoing aftercare.
