Abstract

[This chapter concludes not only the RAC cognitive behavioral curriculum but also this book. The exercise for a final equipment meeting, called “Up or Down?,” is presented. The meeting gives group members a chance to review the ideas presented during the preceding equipment meetings and to consolidate their learning. Participants can use the meeting to identify and reject “down” (negative or irresponsible) items (e.g., putdowns and threats), as they also identify and accept “up” items (e.g., constructively expressing a complaint). Accordingly, group members strengthen their commitment to a positive or responsible life, characterized by respect for others as well as for self.]
