Which is NOT a step in the intervention process?

In the intervention process, the primary focus is on the individuals directly involved with the client and the dynamics within their support system. Identifying important individuals in the client’s life, training the family on how to intervene, and discussing significant issues affecting the client all play essential roles in establishing a supportive environment to facilitate positive change.

The choice involving a law enforcement officer does not align with the core steps typically encompassed in the intervention process. While law enforcement might be relevant in certain circumstances, particularly if there are legal issues or safety concerns, the fundamental intervention steps prioritize the interpersonal relationships, communication, and support management within the client's immediate circle. Thus, it is considered outside the standard practice of the intervention process to focus on the legal aspect before addressing the personal and relational components critical to successful intervention.
