This document outlines the weekly coursework for CJHS 400, which covers theories and practices related to human services in criminal justice. Over the course of five weeks, students complete assignments on psychotherapy history, behavioral and cognitive theories, systems and multicultural approaches, and developing their own intervention theory. Assignments include timelines, behavior plans, presentations, papers, and a final team case study presentation. The course examines major theories, theorists, and how different approaches can be applied in community and corrections settings to provide effective treatment interventions.
