Abstract

ABSTRACTPartners for Change Outcome Management System (PCOMS) is a client-driven outcome management system that has been proven effective with engaging voluntary mental health client populations through several randomized clinical trials. Little is known, however, about PCOMS application to clients who are court ordered or pressured to attend group programs. This study (N = 10) interviewed group facilitators who use PCOMS with involuntary groups. Participants strongly endorsed the use of the instruments to increase client voice, respond supportively to client incongruence, and focus on client responsibility for change. Guidelines for application to involuntary groups and research and practice implications are discussed.
