COURSE OVERVIEW

COURSE DESCRIPTION

This workbook was written to help offenders overcome denial and accept responsibility for their actions. The objective of this course is to intervene in revolving criminal thinking. It is a cognitive restructuring lifeskills course designed to challenge deeply seated self-defeating thoughts and behaviors.

Whether people choose to live in growth or decay has a powerful impact on them, their significant others, and society as a whole. Living below 500 is fraught with many dangers, strong negative emotions, and life-demeaning results. It is a life filled with captivity, where the subjects have empowered other people and self-inflicted events to control their lives. What the captives don’t understand is that the prison doors to their mind are never locked. All they have to do is push on them and leave.
