CSI's Adult Division received Notice of Award from CSSD for an Alternative in the Community (AIC) and Transitional Living program in Waterbury.

CSI's Alternative in the Community (AIC) programs are community-based alternatives to incarceration that provide multifaceted intervention services for nonviolent offenders awaiting trial, or who are on probation or parole. The program uses Motivational Interviewing techniques and a curricula-driven, evidence-based model designed to assess the needs of each client to reduce individual risk factors. Participants work closely with case managers, intervention and employment specialists to develop individual goals and make positive changes in their lives.

The Transitional Living program provides room and board to male pre-trial, parole and probation clients. Referrals are made to local service providers and area employers.
