For today’s episode, I wanted to talk about Motivational Interviewing for Campus Police. Ryan Snow and I recently spoke on this very same topic at the NASPA Strategies conference and folks wanted more and more info about how they can get their campus police officers involved. So I thought I’d break down the basics of campus police using motivational interviewing on patrol.

Although we have a number of buzzwords focused on diversity and cultural inclusion, this topic should have always been at the forefront of our minds. In fact, when you truly examine our code of ethics and the Strategic Prevention Framework, is it obvious that diversity, equity, and inclusion are embedded in our professional standards?

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stress, not sure where to begin, or want to step your game up to a whole new level then this episode is for you. We dive into coaching, how it differs from TA, and how to create long-term change.

For today’s episode, we are bringing you another quick mini-episode with Angie and Karie from HueLife. A quick refresher from the last episode, the Huelife mission is to educate, facilitate, and inspire engagement in meaningful action for the greater good of communities and organizations.

As prevention leaders, we talk about culture. Cultural competence is at the core of the strategic prevention framework and woven through each step. But today I want to talk about the culture of your prevention team. Not diversity – but culture.

In this episode, I want to share what this podcast is all about and some fun things to look forward to. I’ve had so much fun with the Mid-America PTTC podcast, I wanted to launch my own personal podcast.

For today’s episode, I went back to my archives and dusted off a conversation I had with Officer Ryan Snow. We chat about his work on a campus and community coalition, being involved in data collection and analysis, strategies for engaging law enforcement in your prevention efforts, and how he uses motivational interviewing on patrol.

In this episode, Jeff Linkenbach shares insights on the Montana Summer Institute, an in-person and virtual event for substance misuse prevention professionals. The event focuses on prevention science, best practices, and transformational leadership, and provides participants with cutting-edge research, tools, and frameworks to apply in their prevention work.
