This group is for clients whose primary criminogenic need is criminal thinking. This is often the best fit for individuals who have a lengthy criminal history but do not meet the criteria for substance abuse, anger management, or criminal culture. In addition to criminal thinking, this group covers basic mental health issues, emotion management, dealing with adversity, and improving communication skills. If the supervising agent has difficulty determining a client’s criminogenic need, it is often related to a client’s judgment, impulse control, or problem solving, all of which are covered in this group.
