Some roles filled by peer support specialists include assisting their peers in articulating their goals for recovery, learning and practicing new skills, helping them monitor their progress, supporting them in their treatment, modeling effective coping techniques and self-help strategies based on the specialist's own recovery experience, supporting them in advocating for themselves to obtain effective services, and developing and implementing recovery plans.
Moral Reconation Therapy (MRT) is a systematic treatment strategy that seeks to decrease recidivism among adult offenders by increasing moral reasoning.Moral Reconation Therapy (MRT) is a systematic treatment strategy that seeks to decrease recidivism among adult offenders by increasing moral reasoning. MRT is on the National Registry of Evidence-based Programs and Practices (NREPP).
MRT addresses beliefs and reasoning. It is a systematic, step-by-step group counseling treatment approach for treatment-resistant clients. The program is designed to alter how clients think and make judgments about what is right and wrong. The MRT system approaches the problem of treating resistant populations as a problem of low levels of moral reasoning. In this case, “moral” does not refer to a religious concept, but rather the theoretical conceptualization of psychologist Lawrence Kohlberg. Moral reasoning represents how a person makes decisions about what he or she should or should not do in a given situation.
Both MRT and DV MRT is Offered
Domestic Violence (DV) MRT (Now offering) evidence-based programming that increases accountability for batterers, provides insight into why individuals may have acted violently, and assist in confronting those tendencies in current situations. The programs are founded on a cognitive behavioral program called Moral Reconation Therapy™ (MRT). Through the use of simple practices, social experiments, and appropriate counseling, our program will help many to learn how to communicate without violence. The MRT-based domestic violence materials are tailored specifically for those who commit domestic violence.
The domestic violence program is divided in 24 modules with each module completed in a group setting. Clients complete coursework for each module prior to attending a session. In group, each client will present his or her work to the course facilitator who will pass the client to the next module or have the client repeat the lesson based on objective criteria.
All DV MRT groups are open-ended, meaning new clients may enter an ongoing group at any time. This is a 6 month or longer commitment. This program ranges from 26-52 weeks long, depending on the client’s progress
MRT has been designated as an Evidence Based Practice by substance abuse & mental health Services Administration (SAMHSA)and research has shown that it is effective in reducing recidivism.
