Substance abuse treatment in the U.S. is not a smooth continuum of services available to all those who seek them. This speaks to the importance of this comprehensive guide, which evaluates and summarizes all available substance abuse treatment settings and approaches, including in-patient, outpatient, 12-step programs, and more. It looks at the simplest of treatments (brief interventions) to the most intensive and expensive types of inpatient treatment programs. This text provides a clear and succinct review of different types of treatment, addresses controversies over "best practices," and examines their effectiveness with a variety of populations. It also closely examines research findings and their applicability for improving substance abuse treatment in the future.

Key Features: A comprehensive and practical guide to the field of substance abuse treatment Offers an overview of national, state, and local prevention efforts Includes chapters on substance abuse treatment with special populations including children/adolescents, women, the elderly, and criminal offenders Translates complex research findings into an easily understandable format
