Motivational Interviewing for Peacemaking Webinar presented by Hon. Carrie Garrow, Chief Judge, Saint Regis Mohawk Tribal Court (Mohawk) on November 4, 2024
Judicial interaction with participants is a critical component of participants’ success. Motivational interviewing, created by William Miller and Stephen Rollnick, is a method of communication and designed to help people explore and resolve ambivalence about changing behaviors. It is frequently used by counselors and probation officers. However, it is also an important tool that Peacemakers can utilize as a communication technique. This workshop will give an overview of the basic principles of motivational interviewing and through the use of role-playing scenarios demonstrate how Peacemakers can put it into practice.
