About this event

Brief interventions is a way of engaging with a person who you see has a life problem which you want to help them with. This training gives you the confidence to make the approach, encourage the person to engage and feel supported, even though they had not expected your offer of support.

Course objectives:

  • To understand the value of a brief intervention
  • To recognise a person’s readiness to change
  • To be confident in talking to your client
  • To practice holding the conversation
  • Be aware of where to refer for help

Our training relies on your cameras being on please. This means we can judge engagement and plan our activities and breaks.

This training is funded by North Northamptonshire and West Northamptonshire Council and is free to professionals, volunteers working in Northamptonshire and the community.
