Subject: Register for a Regional Stakeholder Training on the Indiana Risk Assessment System and the Indiana Youth Assessment System
The Indiana Office of Court Services (formerly the Indiana Judicial Center) will be conducting regional Stakeholder Trainings on the Indiana Risk Assessment System (IRAS) and the Indiana Youth Assessment System (IYAS) late October and in November.
Evidence-based practices are critical to each community in working toward better outcomes with criminal and juvenile justice systems. One of the foundational elements of evidence-based practices is risk assessment. Validated risk assessments provide information to aid in determining supervision strategies, areas for further assessment, and targeted services and interventions. The Indiana Office of Court Services would like you to join us for these informative sessions to aid you in a better understanding of risk assessment systems and their benefits.
