David Prescott Presents – Trauma, Risk, and Good Lives: What Have We Learned?

Safer Society Press offers this videotaped webinar that was hosted live in March 11, 2020 by the Global Institute of Forensic Research (GIFR).
In this 1.5-hour webinar, presenter David Prescott reviews what our field has learned in recent years about trauma, adversity, risk, and the good lives model. He explores what we can learn about adhering to the principles of risk, need, and responsivity by examining the underlying narratives of people’s lives. As Tony Ward and others have observed in recent years, our understanding of “protective factors” often does not adequately account for the processes that drive these factors.
