MULTI-SITE STUDY OF CO-OCCURRING DISORDERS

This research compares two programs for people with an addiction to heroin and a co-occurring mental disorder. One program represents a parallel approach to treatment in which the substance abuse agency refers clients to a second agency for mental health treatment. The other program represents an integrated approach to treatment in which both substance abuse and mental health treatment are incorporated within the same program. To help staff in both programs understand and adhere to the model being tested, AHP developed program manuals for both parallel and integrated treatment approaches. In addition, AHP staff have given presentations on this study at professional conferences and grantee meetings.
