Habitual practice of these
six steps, almost like training for a fire drill, allows a
person to function with the ease of what some call "second
nature, " permitting good decision making skills even under
emotional pressure or timed deadlines.
Each client receives a "work book" or Guidefor these six
steps, and the teachers lead the way with two companion
"lesson plans:" one for group (macro) meetings and
another for the one-on-one (micro) meetings. A
client must complete all six steps in each curriculum to
receive his or her graduation certificate. In
addition to the Guides, Thresholds hands out a
generous flow of information and motivational packages,
for hundreds of inmates each year. If you
