| Event Type: |
Educational Event |
| What: |
This first webinar will introduce participants to a NIDA researched clinical tool, the evidence based practice of motivational incentives, or contingency management as it is sometimes called. We will begin with an overall discussion of incentives: why we use them, the principles on which they are based, what makes them powerful, how you can get started in designing an incentive program. There will be ample discussion of what defines an incentive, what makes a token or privilege motivating, and how to build on small successes toward larger and longer-term goals We will discuss how to choose a target behavior and how to identify the group(s) or person(s) to receive incentives. Common barriers to implementation will be discussed, and participants will receive resources for implementation, including information on the NIDA/SAMSHA Blending Products. |
