R-N-R Principles Have changed our organisations since 2001
ASSESSMENTS – VISAT, ROR, ORNI-R, LSI-R, LS-CMI, LS-RNR, YLSI, CVTRQ
PROGRAMS – Groupwork, evidence based, accredited and focused on “needs”

Manitoba Black Box Study
(Bonta et al., 2004, 2008)
211 audiotapes of client interviewsa) Do offenders’ plans contain criminogenic needs?
b) Does supervision target identified criminogenic needs?
c) Are probation officers using the techniques associated with reduced recidivism (i.e., cognitive-behavioural strategies, problem-solving)?
d) Any differences?

Probation Conditions & Recidivism
Compliance with the probation conditions is a fact of community supervision
But too much emphasis can backfire
Time Recidivism
10 minutes 18.9%
15 minutes or more 42.3%
Rates adjusted for risk level
![Page 12: What does WHAT WORKS have to do with my work?](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815cba550346895dcab641/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Targeting Criminogenic Needs:Effecting Recidivism
Discussing criminogenic needs were related to reduced recidivism
More focus on criminogenic needs, lower the recidivism
Length of Discussion Recidivism (n)
Low (0-15 minutes) 59.8% (49)
Medium (20-30 minutes) 47.6% (26)
High (40+ minutes) 33.3% (3)

2009 NSW Replication Study Joanne Kennedy replicated Black Box study
in 2009 Total sample – 1,666 Looked at the relationship between
Assessment (LSI-R), case plan factors, case plan strategies and discussion case notes
Similar patterns were found

STICS: (Strategic Training Initiative in Community Supervision)
Training in the RNR model ofCommunity Supervision
Bonta, Bourgon, Rugge, Scott, Yessine, Gutierrez & Li (Nov 2011)
![Page 17: What does WHAT WORKS have to do with my work?](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815cba550346895dcab641/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
STICS format
3 Day Training Teach skills to facilitate change in RNR framework Teach the “how to” with clients Provide structure
On-Going Clinical Support Monthly STICS Meetings Refresher Course Feedback on audiotapes
![Page 18: What does WHAT WORKS have to do with my work?](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815cba550346895dcab641/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Effects on Probation Officers

Relevant & Irrelevant Discussions?
Is time spent on… Criminogenic needs Focus on procriminal attitudes
Or… Non-criminogenic needs Probation conditions
![Page 20: What does WHAT WORKS have to do with my work?](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815cba550346895dcab641/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

So Evidence says…
STICS changes PO behaviour Enhances the officers’ RNR practices
More focus on criminogenic needs, especially antisocial attitudes
Less spent on non-criminogenic needs & the conditions of probation
Better relationship, structuring & cognitive-behavioural skills for interpersonal influence
![Page 23: What does WHAT WORKS have to do with my work?](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815cba550346895dcab641/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Effects on Clients
![Page 24: What does WHAT WORKS have to do with my work?](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815cba550346895dcab641/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Did STICS reduce recidivism?
Are client outcomes different? “Personal” caseload recidivism rates at
1 & 2 Years
PO Effectiveness?Before vs. After STICS
![Page 25: What does WHAT WORKS have to do with my work?](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815cba550346895dcab641/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Recidivism before STICS
Note: No Differences: STICS PO higher recidivism prior to training
![Page 26: What does WHAT WORKS have to do with my work?](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815cba550346895dcab641/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Recidivism after STICS
Note: 13% DifferenceEven greater reductions in recidivism was achieved for those who continued with
the monthly meetings, feedback and refresher courses (15% )
![Page 27: What does WHAT WORKS have to do with my work?](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815cba550346895dcab641/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
1 Year Recidivism Differences
Group Pre Post Change
Control 34% 33% ↓ 1%
STICS with some clinical support
33% 24% ↓ 9%
STICS with high clinical Support
41% 15% ↓ 26%
![Page 28: What does WHAT WORKS have to do with my work?](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815cba550346895dcab641/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Intensive Training and Support in What Works Works!
Intensive RNR training improves PO skills & Interventions
Intensive RNR training reduces reoffending On-going clinical support very important Cognitive Behavioural skills hardest to learn
Requires time & clinical support
SO HOW DO WE GET HOLD OF IT?Or do we attempt it ourselves??
![Page 29: What does WHAT WORKS have to do with my work?](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815cba550346895dcab641/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Is it worth it?YES It works. Working with clients this way reduces
recidivism. Adhering to RNR principles has to be organisational,
functional, be supported in policy and in practice.
NO Costly to put all staff through thorough training and
have ongoing STICS type support Only one study so far Some staff are already over “What Works”
