ANNOTATION: The reduction of recidivism and drug consumption among drug-using offenders through the use of a systemic case management model is examined. The overall retention rate in the treatment process was 85%. After being in the community for 9 months, only 12% of WIB HIDTA participants were arrested for new crimes. Report contents cover: treatment as a crime control tool; typical barriers to treatment; added bonuses of providing treatment to offenders; moving from an individual case management approach to systemic case management; lessons from the WIB HIDTA seamless system of treatment, testing, and sanctions; and 12 principles for effective systems of care focusing on transitional policies and treatment retention.
