Developmentally Sensitive Competence Interviewing Using the JACI
Presented by Ivan Kruh, PhD in partnership with The National Youth Screening & Assessment Partners
This on-demand professional training program on Developmentally Sensitive Competence Interviewing Using the JACI is presented by Ivan Kruh, PhD., in partnership with The National Youth Screening & Assessment Partners.
State statutes increasingly recognize developmental immaturity as a basis for youth in juvenile court to be found incompetent. However, only one focused competence assessment tool, the Juvenile Adjudicative Competency Interview (JACI), was developed specifically for the developmentally-sensitive competency assessment. This program discusses the development of the JACI, focusing on how it considers the potential impact of cognitive and psychosocial immaturity upon a youth’s competence-related abilities. The administration and interpretation of the JACI will also be explained (and practiced).
Upon completion of this program you will be able to:
Describe the development process behind the Juvenile Adjudicative Competency Interview (JACI)
Develop familiarity and comfort with the administration of the JACI in forensic practice
