Executive Summary:<\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\nThe Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainers (MINT) is an international organisation of trainers in motivational interviewing, incorporated as a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt non-profit charitable organisation in the state of Virginia, USA. The trainers come from diverse backgrounds and apply Motivational Interviewing (MI) in a variety of settings. Their central interest is to improve the quality and effectiveness of counseling and consultations with clients about behavior change. Started in 1997 by a small group of trainers trained by William R. Miller and Stephen Rollnick, the organisation has since grown to represent forty countries and more than thirty different languages.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nThe mission of MINT is to promote good practice in the use, research, and training of motivational interviewing.
