PDS is “a service provider for Courts, Prosecutors, Probation and Parole agencies providing behavior change intervention utilizing the Motivational Facilitation Method, a style of communication that moves our Participant towards change in a manner that does not inadvertently create roadblocks to the Behavior Change process.”

Their web site needs included the ability to manage content themselves, maintenance of class schedules, mapping to class locations, class registration capabilities, and to match existing promotional materials. Utilizing a highly customized WordPress installation, custom secure forms, an embedded public Google Calendar for scheduling and mapping, and embedded custom HTML in pages, I was able to meet all of these objectives under budget.

Most importantly, however was the ability to do sophisticated administration through two highly intuitive interfaces – Google Calendar and the WordPress Administrative panel. The next stage for PDS will be to add transparent and secure payment and registration verification through a service provider.
