Crisis Prevention Institute Case Study

Hammonton Middle School – New Jersey

Introduction

This case study of Hammonton Middle School is based on a May 2016 survey of Crisis Prevention Institute customers by TechValidate, a 3rd-party research service.

“The Nonviolent Crisis Intervention® training program has been very effective in the school setting. I have also had to reach out to CPI and they have been extremely helpful and prompt in returning my calls. CPI has also been very helpful in my everyday interaction with behavioral students and staff. I use the skills that CPI has taught me every single day. CPI has also been helpful in working with me to maintain my certification. I am very appreciative of the program. I would recommend this program to anyone and everyone!”

“CPI improved staff de-escalation skills, improved overall safety, and has become ingrained in our training.”

“Using CPI training has led to improved student outcomes, because of an increase in direct instruction time. (For instance, test scores, student grades, graduation rates, etc.)”

“CPI has provided confidence for the staff at Hammonton Middle School. They feel confident in providing the best Care, Welfare, Safety, and Security in dealing with behavioral incidents. My students have also benefited by using the skills taught to them (verbal de-escalation) to self-regulate or to help peers who are experiencing a crisis. They have received the best care when being involved in a crisis situation.”
