Training at CJI is fully customized to meet every organization’s needs.

Dr. Clark draws on a PhD in criminal justice, victim advocacy, and years of direct practice to deliver training that meets professionals where they are. Whether that’s a two-hour workshop or a full professional development day. All training engagements begin with a brief conversation about your organization’s needs, audience, and goals. CJI does not use off-the-shelf packages.
