The Federal Probation and Pretrial Middle District of Alabama is new to ACCI and the Lifeskills Link Program. All USPOs will be trained and provided with their own individual Lifeskills Link account and will be prepared to work the probationer’s on their caseload through the program. Emphasis will be given on how to utilize the program in conjunction with the PCRA 2.0 (Post Conviction Risk Assessment) and the STARR (Staff Training Aimed at Reducing Rearrest) approach.

Training will be provided to the Peer Support Specialists who work in conjunction with St. Claire Healthcare and with several of the county jails in their region. The Peer Support Specialists are assigned caseloads of incarcerated individuals and are tasked with providing evidence-based programming to prepare the individual for a successful release back into the community. The training will orient the Peer Support Specialists to ACCI’s Cognitive Lifeskills Course, and the Lifeskills Link platform, and will equip them with resources and best practices for delivering both self-directed and group facilitation programs.

The federal district of Central Illinois has several new Probation Officers that will be trained on the Lifeskills Link Program. ACCI has been working with this district for over 10 years and has achieved an 83% completion rate. This training helps officers connect the dots between the Post Conviction Risk Assessment (PCRA 2.0) and the STARR supervision approach to ACCI’s self-directed CBT courses and program.
