CAT is an evidence-based psychosocial intervention designed
to bypass cognitive and motivational impairments associated with serious mental
illness in an effort to improve functional outcomes. CAT interventions include
environmental supports such as signs, checklists, alarms, pill containers, and
the organization of belongings to cue and sequence adaptive behaviors in the
individual’s home. The interventions are individualized based upon a
standardized assessment of each person’s needs and challenges. CAT has been
shown to decrease rates of relapse and to improve multiple functional outcomes.
This 2-day instructor led training includes classroom
teaching each morning followed by practicing learned skills each afternoon
within a transition aged (13-22) youth’s home. In-home visits include
conducting assessments and establishing supports according to the treatment
manual. This training is best suited for field-based staff who provide
treatment over a sustained period of time to transition aged youth (TAY). This
course provides an advanced understanding of CAT treatment. Successful
completion of this certification course signifies competency to provide CAT to
those you serve.
