We strongly recommend that work on criminogenic needs/skill-building be done with the proper intensity/dosage. Skimming across topics too quickly does not create long-lasting change. “Going deep” and working on a major criminogenic need over a few months is better than addressing one issue or another for short periods of time. The number of times one has to repeat a skill before it becomes muscle memory is significant. So, that is our caution about moving from Guide to Guide too quickly. The exception to this would be when someone has already worked on their driver (the criminogenic need that is at the root of their illegal behavior) and is now simply picking up some additional skills that would help them. In that case, you might select various tools from various Guides and put together a customized package of tools/skills.
