Book excerpt: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS. This document, Treatment of Adolescents With Substance Use Disorders, is a revision and update of Treatment Improvement Protocol (TIP) 4, published in 1993 by the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT) of the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). Like TIP 4, this document aims to help treatment providers design and deliver better services to adolescent clients with substance use disorders. In 1992, CSAT convened a Consensus Panel of experts on adolescent substance use disorder treatment to produce guidelines for treatment programs on designing and delivering effective services to adolescent clients. The clients addressed in the TIP included, among others, young people involved with the juvenile and criminal justice systems. CSAT also intended for the Panel's guidelines to help governmental agencies and treatment providers establish, fund, operate, monitor, and evaluate treatment programs for substance-using adolescents. The result of that Panel's work was TIP 4, Guidelines for the Treatment of Alcohol- and Other Drug-Abusing Adolescents. In July 1997, CSAT convened a small Revision Panel to review TIP 4. The Panel recommended changes and developed content for this revised TIP. Since the publication of TIP 4, the understanding of substance use disorders and its treatment among adolescents has advanced. More is known today about the immediate and long-term physiologic, behavioral, and social consequences of use, abuse, and dependency. New research attention has begun to examine the effectiveness of various treatment methods and components that meet the specific treatment needs of substance-using adolescents, and this literature is reviewed. However, the literature is small. Fortunately, a large multisite, national study on the effectiveness of treatment for adolescent substance users is underway with funds from the National Institute on Drug Abuse. CSAT is also conducting studies on adolescents, focusing on marijuana treatment, diversion programs in the juvenile justice system (JJS), and exemplary treatment programs. The field will likely mature greatly by the knowledge advanced from these studies. The structure of the earlier TIP of separate inpatient and outpatient treatment chapters, which represented a continuum of service intensity, was viewed by the Revision Panel to be less central to treatment decisions than a continuum based on the severity of the substance use disorder. This shift in focus better reflects clinical experience, extant treatment research, and the recent changes regarding reimbursement by health care payors for treatment. However, the Revision Panel retained a broad definition of treatment. Treatment is defined in this TIP as those activities that might be undertaken to deal with problem(s) associated with substance involvement and with individuals manifesting a substance use disorder. Although the Panel recognizes that primary or secondary prevention of substance use are included in expanded definitions of treatment, the Panel limited the continuum of interventions to what is traditionally viewed as acute intervention, rehabilitation, and maintenance. The elements of the continuum primarily reflect the treatment philosophies of providers, with less emphasis on settings and modalities. In addition to defining the treatment needs of adolescents and providing a full description of the use of the severity continuum, the Revision Panel focused attention on three common types of treatment for adolescents today: 12-Step-based treatment, treatment in the adolescent therapeutic community, and family therapy. The 12-Step model lies at the heart of many adolescent treatment programs. Therapeutic communities (TCs) are an intensive type of residential treatment that is attracting attention as a preferred approach for substance-using juveniles incarcerated in the justice system. Clinicians have found that effective treatment of the adolescent almost always involves the family, and the effectiveness of family therapy has been documented extensively, particularly among those substance-using adolescents who are normally the most difficult to treat. This revision of the earlier TIP, then, offers guidelines for using the severity continuum to make treatment decisions and for providing three common models of treatment for adolescents with substance use disorders. Recommendations of the Revision Panel, supported by extensive clinical experience and the literature, are summarized below. The organization of this TIP reflects the core facets of initiating, engaging, and maintaining the change process for youths with substance use disorders. Chapter 1 details the scope and complexity of the problem. Chapter 2 covers factors considered in making treatment decisions, and Chapter 3 details the features of successful programs. Chapters 4, 5, and 6 introduce and describe the treatment approaches used in 12-Step-based treatment, therapeutic communities, and family therapy, respectively. Chapter 7 discusses adolescents with distinctive treatment needs, such as youths involved in the juvenile justice system, homeless and runaway youth, and youth with coexisting disorders. Chapter 8 describes the legal and ethical issues that relate to diagnosis and treatment of adolescents. This new TIP derives from CSAT's intention to provide protocols that reflect the work now being done by providers of high-quality treatment. As with other TIPs, this document brings the best knowledge from the field to State and local treatment programs. In order to avoid awkward construction and sexism, this TIP alternates between "he" and "she" for generic examples. The companion document, TIP 31, Screening and Assessing Adolescents for Substance Use Disorders, a revision of TIP 3, has also been published (CSAT, 1999).

Download or read book Reducing Underage Drinking written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-03-26 with total page 761 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alcohol use by young people is extremely dangerous - both to themselves and society at large. Underage alcohol use is associated with traffic fatalities, violence, unsafe sex, suicide, educational failure, and other problem behaviors that diminish the prospects of future success, as well as health risks â€" and the earlier teens start drinking, the greater the danger. Despite these serious concerns, the media continues to make drinking look attractive to youth, and it remains possible and even easy for teenagers to get access to alcohol. Why is this dangerous behavior so pervasive? What can be done to prevent it? What will work and who is responsible for making sure it happens? Reducing Underage Drinking addresses these questions and proposes a new way to combat underage alcohol use. It explores the ways in which may different individuals and groups contribute to the problem and how they can be enlisted to prevent it. Reducing Underage Drinking will serve as both a game plan and a call to arms for anyone with an investment in youth health and safety.

Download or read book Family Therapy with Adolescents in Residential Treatment written by Jacob D. Christenson and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-03-30 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This highly practical resource integrates the powerful dynamics of family into residential treatment and outdoors-based therapy for young people. Recognizing both the family as the systemic base for promoting change in adolescents and the therapeutic potential of the residential/wilderness setting, experts show how aligning the two can enhance the healing value of the program while promoting higher standards for care. Chapters describe innovative, science-based interventions and techniques for treating common behavioral and emotional problems along a continuum of family involvement and separation, to address issues affecting the family as well as the identified patient. With its accessible ideas and compelling case studies, the book ably demonstrates the critical role of family in adolescent patients’ successful transition to post-treatment life. Among the topics covered: • A parallel process: home therapy while the adolescent or young adult is in residential care.• Intentional separation of families: increasing differentiation through wilderness therapy.• Emerging family therapy models utilized in residential settings.• Engaging families in Outdoor Behavioral Healthcare.• Research on coping skills used by youth with emotional and behavioral disorders.• Expanding our understanding of the place of family therapy in residential treatment. Family Therapy with Adolescents in Residential Treatment offers novel, exciting, and effective strategies and techniques for practitioners and mental health professionals particularly interested in family therapy with adolescents, and in related interventions and research.
Download or read book Adolescent Substance Abuse written by Carl Leukefeld and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-04-02 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Substance abuse is, and has always been, an indisputable fact of life. People – especially young people – abuse various legal and illegal substances for any number of reasons: to intensify feelings, to achieve deeper consciousness, to escape reality, to self-medicate. And as substance-abusing teenagers mature, they pose particular challenges to the professionals charged with keeping them clean and sober and helping them maintain recovery into adulthood. Adolescent Substance Abuse: Evidence-Based Approaches to Prevention and Treatment offers clear, interdisciplinary guidance that grounds readers in the many contexts – developmental, genetic, social, and familial among them – crucial to creating effective interventions and prevention methods. Its contributors examine current findings regarding popularly used therapies, including psychopharmacology, residential treatment, school- and community-based programs, group homes, and specific forms of individual, family, and group therapy. Accessible to a wide professional audience, this volume: (1) Presents evidence-based support for the treatment decision-making process by identifying interventions that work, might work, and don’t work. (2) Identifies individual traits associated with susceptibility to substance abuse and addiction in youth. (3) Provides a biogenetic model of the effects of drugs on the brain (and refines the concept of gateway drugs). (4) Evaluates the effectiveness of prevention programs in school and community settings. (5) Adds historical, spiritual, and legal perspectives on substance use and misuse. (6) Includes the bonus resource, the Community Prevention Handbook on Adolescent Substance Abuse and Treatment. This volume is an all-in-one reference for counseling professionals and clinicians working with youth and families as well as program developers in state and local agencies and graduate students in counseling and prevention.
