Crisis Prevention & Intervention Training

Nonviolent Crisis Prevention & Intervention Training (CPI) focuses on prevention and equips individuals with proven strategies for safely defusing anxious, hostile, or violent behavior at the earliest possible stage.

Highlights of CPI training include:

  • Reducing the risk of injury
  • Complying with legislative mandates
  • Meeting regulatory/accreditation standards
  • Improving staff retention
  • Minimizing exposure to liability
  • Promoting care, welfare, safety, and security

Program objectives are broken into Units I-VII with an emphasis on preventive techniques. Unit VIII focuses on team intervention including staff attitudes and professionalism. Units IX-X provide opportunities for role-playing and postvention (finding ways after a crisis to help avoid a future event).
