This invaluable text provides a rigorous guide to the assessment
and evaluation of treatment programs through a multi-disciplinary,
holistic model of care. It highlights issues of race, social
justice, and health equity, and offers real-world guidance to
effect community healing and transformation. Written by a
researcher and experienced evaluator, the book begins by outlining
the theories and research which frame our understanding of
substance misuse, and upon which treatment programs are based. It
then examines the principles which should underpin any evaluation,
before detailing the practical various steps required to conduct an
evaluation, from data collection to outcome measurement. The book
shows, too, through detailed and effective evaluation, policy
changes can be made and treatment programs improved. Including
practical examples of evaluation and assessment throughout, and
also assessing the numerous social systems which can support
recovery, the book builds to a four-step public health model for
establishing sustainable treatment programs. In an era where
substance misuse has reached epidemic proportions in the United
States and beyond, this book will be essential reading for anyone
involved in public health policy and practice in this important
area.
