Criminal Conduct and Substance Abuse Treatment - The Provider's Guide - Strategies for Self-Improvement and Change; Pathways to Responsible Living (Paperback, 2nd Revised edition)

The long awaited Second Edition of Criminal Conduct and Substance Abuse Treatment, Provider's Guide is finally here.

This includes a chapter on the assessment protocol, which is critical in order to accurately assess the issues, problems and vulnerabilities of the client.
