STOPLifting is a 7-lesson course covering victim impact, legal repercussions, shoplifter types, and behavior-change strategies. The course also explores the justifications of and consequences for shoplifters.
Written in a Motivational Interviewing style, STOPLifting draws from personalized feedback and other evidence-based approaches to help shoplifters move from ambivalence to awareness to a change in behavior. Each student completes a confidential survey, thereby tailoring the course to the individual.
