Registration Open for ICCA Summit on Risks and Needs

May 24, 2011 1030

ICCA is hosting our first ever topical conference, focusing on evidence-based risk/needs assessments and the roles they play in a variety of settings.

Conference discussions will include evaluation and treatment methodologies in mental health and substance abuse/addictions, as well as what implementation science tells us about integrating evidence-based practices into agency operations.

Our conference provides an opportunity for networking and shared learning for professionals in the treatment and criminal justice systems. We anticipate drawing over 250 participants, including community corrections agency leaders and program directors, probation and parole officers, jail reentry program directors, researchers, judges, and government representatives.

The conference will be held July 17th – 20th, 2011, in Reno, Nevada at the John Ascuaga’s Nugget Hotel. Conference registration, and a full schedule of workshops and speakers is available online at http://www.iccaweb.org/renomeeting_2011.htm
