Summary

Marshall Swenson and Dean Fixsen discuss Marshall's experience working with MST. Marshall E. Swenson, MSW, MBA is a Consultant for New Program Development at MST Services where he has worked since it’s inception in 1996. Two years prior to that he was an MST Expert at Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston, SC, the home of MST research. He received his MSW in Clinical Social Work from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 1978, and his MBA from Centenary College of Shreveport, Louisiana in 1987. Prior to joining the MST team, he worked for more than 25 years in a variety of social work settings in clinical practice, supervision, administration and community organization. Multisystemic Therapy (MST) is a scientifically proven intervention for at-risk youth. Therapists work in the home, school and community and are on call 24/7 to provide caregivers with the tools they need to transform the lives of troubled youth. Research demonstrates that MST reduces criminal activity and other undesirable behavior. At the close of treatment, 87% of youth have no arrests.
