Publication year:
1998
| Cataloged on:
Oct. 31, 2006
ANNOTATION: If substance abuse treatment is not continued after the offender is released from jail or prison, treatment gains can easily be lost. Continued dependence on substances increases the chances for offender recidivism. This document provides continuity of care guidelines based upon a combination of research and clinical experience. Contents include: executive summary and recommendations; introduction; case management and accountability; guidelines for institution and community programs; administrative guidelines; ancillary services; and special populations. Appendixes include: Substance Use Survey (SUS); Adolescent Self Assessment Profile (ASAP); Substance Use Disorder Program Discharge Summary; Powder River Transition Plan; and a contacts directory.
