The Accountability Training Program®

The Accountability Training Program® is a comprehensive system of program management, operational standards, and offender-curriculum compiled by Stephen K. Valle, Sc.D., M.B.A. This is the cornerstone of ACJS's public safety model of treatment.

ACJS is the only vendor in the commonwealth to achieve such a distinction.
