About this title

Synopsis

Preventing Substance Abuse is an informal guide to successful programs for treating specific substance abuse problems, identifying their origins, implementation, outcomes, and, where possible, contacts for obtaining additional information. The emphasis is on information documented from outcomes of successful interventions rather than on theories of what should work or what works under experimental conditions. Key features include easy-to-follow charts and graphs and an appendix summarizing the National Structured Evaluation (mandated by Congress) of substance abuse prevention.

Review

`Highly recommended for individuals seeking direction for AOD abuse prevention program development in their communities....For new researchers or students of prevention, this book outlines a great variety of issues that are good to know about...It also provides good building material for designing future studies.'
Journal of Studies on Alcohol, January 1998
