Description

Nancy K. Young (ed.). Presents a fundamental rethinking of the importance of integrating vocational services into substance abuse treatment planning. Shows how employment can play a key role in recovery from substance abuse disorders. In the wake of legislative reforms & limited resources, this report discusses establishing a referral relationship with other agencies to better meet client needs. Not only will clients receive services in areas outside the alcohol & drug counselor’s area of expertise, but active referrals may help the client stay in treatment, & agencies can also share resources & funding to provide services more efficiently. Policy & funding issues also are discussed, as are legal issues.
