After a brief production pause, The Criminologist Podcast returns with a powerful blend of updates and reflections — both current and classic!!!
In this episode, host Joseph Arvidson shares some exciting developments surrounding the ongoing implementation and development of the TIDES Supervision Model, including:
✅ Recent success rolling out
TIDES with Partners in
Behavioral Health in Minnesota
✅ Expansion of our training delivery options — now offering both
in-person (3-day)
and virtual
formats for the Initial
User Training
✅ The launch of our Train-the-Trainer (ToT) curriculum, designed to
support internal agency capacity-building
✅ A heartfelt shoutout to Nicole Kimberley-Staeheli (TIDES Co-Creator) and
Heather Young
(our newly minted TIDES Trainer) — your dedication is helping this
model thrive!
🎯 As part of our collaboration with PBH, we also began integrating the DRAOR assessment (Dynamic Risk Assessment for Offender Reentry), developed by Dr. Caleb Lloyd, as a dynamic complement to TIDES. For agencies seeking a desistance-aligned measurement tool, DRAOR is a game changer.
But that's not all...
🔁 In the spirit of "Greatest Hits" and in lieu of a new guest, we're re-releasing a must-hear 2021 interview with the legendary Brad Bogue of J-SAT. Brad offers an unparalleled critique of the Needs Principle in RNR, challenges assumptions around the so-called “Big Four,” and presents a re-framing that still stirs discussion today.
This is essential listening for anyone committed to evidence-based supervision, differential diagnosis, and the evolution of our field.
