The book presents an overview of new and emerging models for treatment of drug-involved offenders in a variety of settings. Treating Substance Abusers in Correctional Contexts looks at treatment modalities available to offenders inside and outside correctional institutions, with community organizations and mental health and social service agencies enlisted in a continuum of care as the courts and criminal justice system provide oversight. The book explores types of treatment that operate under the surveillance of courts and the criminal justice system, ranging from in-house programs for offenders under confinement in prisons and jails to residential substance abuse treatment (RSAT) and substance abuse treatment (SAT) programs in the community. Treating Substance Abusers in Correctional Contexts provides essential reading for graduate and undergraduate courses in criminal justice, corrections, offender rehabilitation, and substance abuse. The book provides equally valuable as a primary textbook for continuing education coursework for counsellors, psychologists, social workers, corrections officers, correctional administrators, and policymakers.
