Critical Time Intervention (CTI) is a focused, time-limited approach to case management that is designed to connect people with community supports as they transition into housing from homelessness or institutional settings such as prisons and hospitals. CTI is an evidence-based practice that has been used to support individuals with series mental illness, HIV, or those who have experienced chronic homelessness. CTI is now recognized across the United States and internationally as a cutting-edge case management model. This course will give your agency the tools it needs to implement CTI. We bring together national CTI experts, a team-based learning approach, and engaging multimedia technology. The course covers CTI principles, evidence for CTI, phases of CTI and skills for implementation.

Instructors: Tom Bardwell, MAEd and Melissa Martin, MSW.
