Forward-thinking organizations understand the importance of creating systems that are both replicable and sustainable, ensuring that training benefits are retained and skills are continually enhanced. Follow these simple steps to achieve this.
The Success Systems Approach
- Build Existing In-house Capacity: Establish systems for ongoing training and staff development to reduce dependence on external trainers.
- Seamlessly Adapt Existing Practice: Enhance what you are already doing instead of starting from scratch.
- Institute Sustainable Continuous Support: Provide ongoing support to maximize the return on your training investments.
Sounds simple enough, and it is! CM Days delivers the system nuts and bolts to help you adapt what you are already doing - NOT start from scratch!
How The System Works
Delivering services to clients requires efficient case management that is achieved by empowering the individual receiving services. Effective empowerment comes from being "assistive" and collaboratively teaching and guiding. Our system prioritizes three success keys to achieve that end.
- Effective Engagement of Individual clients being served: Equipping frontline professionals with proven skills to ensure effective client "contact moments". Use of Motivational Interviewing (MI) skills and Evidence-based approaches are emphasized for achieving durable client outcomes.
- Skilled Connection to and Coordination of Resources: Teaching collaborative strategies for connecting clients to services they need - identifying, engaging, and coordinating resources for success. Use of "warm hand-offs" to ensure durable client engagement.
- Family Engagement in Community: Employ proven Family Group Decision-Making, Teaming, and Conferencing methods to engage and leverage families the client values.
How Event Is Organized
It is 3-Days focused on how to institute a sustainable in-house collaborative case management system. Think of it as an evidence-based "3-legged stool" approach emphasizing collaboration, and can be replicated.
- Day-1: Skills for engaging the Individual one on one.
- Day-2: Learn to identify, engage, and coordinate available Resources.
- Day-3: Proven methods for effective Family engagement.

Evidence Based Pathways: Core Skills for Individual Engagement & Motivation in Case Management
Program Outline

It teaches skills in the common elements of evidence-based approaches that practitioners must prioritize for helping clients they serve to acquire or strengthen their ability to perform critical life functions they may have “lost”. These skills are essential in any life domain for helping recipients of services to incrementally improve versus “punishing” or "rehabilitating".

Short-term solutions compound issues, increase caseloads, run up expenses, and ultimately harms everyone in the process - much like applying a band-aid over a gaping bullet wound!
But, it doesn't have to be this way. There's a better solution which remind us to first remove the bullet and then stop the bleeding through the use of approaches that are skillfully implemented.
Evidence-Based "PATHWAYS" Changed This Organization's Future
After one of our community action partnerships attended EB "PATHWAYS", the executive teams' eyes were opened to the future of her organization.
The CEO, “dragged” out of retirement to lead the company, saw how like many well meaning agencies, her staff seemed to get bogged down, and not getting to the source of the problems.
Attending the evidence-based "PATHWAYS" program helped her redirect her staff's passionate motivations with effective practices.
"Our job is NOT to take over people’s lives in the name of "helping" them. It is to partner with clients in an assistive way. Its actually less work per client, and more time to do even more!"
With this newfound triggered revelation, there's now less staff stress and more sustained client success. Practitioners now have a blueprint for their role and teaching methods.
Leadership at the organization now spends time instituting approaches taught by the evidence-based conference.
But the transformational experience of the team is not exclusive to them. You too can share in the benefit.

About EB "PATHWAYS" — Online Digital Summit For Practitioners
-
Attack The Cause, Not The Symptoms
Client caseloads will increase and become more complex with challenging "hard-to-serve" conditions compounding work being done. Frequently well-meaning practitioners and their agencies apply unproven methods to expeditiously move their clients along.
Unfortunately, with that kind of support clients will NOT be able to succeed on their own during 99.9% of the time they are away from the practitioner. Consequently, they will return with bigger more entrenched conditions. The practitioner must serve their current client load and the returning ones!
Short-term solutions compound issues, increase caseloads, run up expenses, and ultimately harms everyone in the process - much like applying a band-aid over a gaping bullet wound!

"Knowledgeable instructors, workbook usage, and very specific layout of materials"
G. MCalla, Jackson, Behavioral Helath
"After working for 26 years in healthcare, this is the first time I attended a program that focuses on ME, not the patient. It was fabulous and will help me in my career and personal life greatly. THANK YOU"
K. Scorza, Seasons Center
"It has helped us with successful grant writing, building a donor base for fund development, and in recruiting and hiring qualified staff. It has benefited our organization by “clearly” signaling to those we work with what our values are and what is required if you collaborate with us. We have seen successful outcomes for our clients and their families. It is exciting to hear our staff now talk about success stories with their clients, interest in new training opportunities, and future programs and services related to emerging research and best practices."
J. Keene, San Mateo Probation
"I would say that helping to change the “culture” in our county about service delivery has been our most successful accomplishment. I would simply like to express my sincere appreciation to Joyfields Institute. With their help, we have raised the level of service to those we supervise by providing better rehabilitative opportunities, increasing public safety, and accountability to victims. it has allowed our department to set a standard in our county for policy development and program procurement. The expectation of all those we work with is that EBP must be a part of our collaboration. It has also raised our standing with our Board of Supervisors and Law Enforcement partners."
