In addition to the above, Thresholds is supported by volunteers who must complete several requirements in order to teach our six-step curriculum in the correction facilities. Our teachers are subject to a county background investigation, must complete security and protocol trainings held by the correction facilities, and finally must become certified in delivering the six-step decision making curriculum. At any given time, we have approximately 20+ active volunteer teachers.
