Addressing-Suicidal Thoughts and Behaviors in Substance Abuse Treatment
Research consistently shows a high prevalence of suicidal thoughts and suicide attempts among persons with substance abuse problems who are in treatment. TIP 50, Addressing Suicidal Thoughts and Behaviors in Substance Abuse Treatment is designed to assist substance abuse counselors in working with adult clents who may be suicidal, and will help clinical supervisors and administrators support the work of substance abuse counselors. Part I, for counselors, provides the "what" and the "why" and the "how" of working with clients in substance abuse treatment with suicidal thoughts and behaviors. It covers background information about suicide and substance use disorders, including risk factors and warning signs for suicide and a four-step process for addressing suicidal thoughts and behaviors. Part 2, for administrators, clarifies why program administrators should be concerned about this clinical issue. Part 3 is for clinical supervisors, interested counselors, and administrators and consists of three sections: an analysis of the available literature, an annotated bibliography and a general bibliography.

Integrating Substance Abuse Treatment and
Vocational Services
Employment has been positively correlated with retention in treatment.
By holding a job, a client establishes a legal source of income,
structured use of time, and improved self-esteem, which in turn may
reduce substance use and criminal activity. Years of research show that
the best predictors of successful substance abuse treatment are
Gainful
employment
Adequate
family support
Lack of
coexisting mental illness
Unemployment and substance abuse may be intertwined long before an
individual seeks treatment. Although the average educational level of
individuals with substance abuse disorders is comparable to that of the
general U.S. population, people who use substances are far more likely
to be unemployed or underemployed than people who do not use substances.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, employment rates for the
non-substance-using population ranged from 72.3 percent in 1980 to 76.8
percent in 1991. However, employment rates of the population with
substance abuse problems before admission or at admission to treatment
have remained at relatively stable, low levels since 1970, ranging from
15 to 30 percent. Most of the research on the employment rates of
persons with substance abuse disorders has focused on opiate-dependent
persons (usually heroin), and employment rates for other substance users
may vary. The data clearly indicate the need for interventions to
improve employment rates among this population in treatment and
recovery. 247 pages |

Substance
Abuse Treatment for Persons With HIV/AIDS
While AIDS remains a
deadly disease, since TIP 15 was published in 1995 new treatment
approaches have extended the length and quality of survival for those
with HIV. This longer term survival requires innovative substance abuse
treatment that encourages people with HIV/AIDS to seek substance abuse
treatment and maintain recovery. TIP 37, Substance Abuse Treatment
for Persons With HIV/AIDS, provides a comprehensive overview of how
the HIV/AIDS epidemic requires substance abuse treatment professionals
to attend to the multiple needs of their clients with HIV/AIDS:
substance abuse and other medical, behavioral, psychological, and social
needs. TIP 37 reviews the history, transmission, and progression of
HIV/AIDS and describes the changes in epidemiology since 1995. It
reports on the current state of medical and mental health treatment and
how this affects people with substance abuse disorders and HIV/AIDS.
Counseling issues are addressed, including staff attitudes, screening,
and issues specific to the client with substance abuse disorders and
HIV/AIDS. The TIP also examines ethical and legal issues of particular
import to both substance abuse treatment providers and their clients
with HIV/AIDS, and concludes with an overview of funding sources and grant writing
guidelines. Several alternative products have been
developed to accompany TIP 37, including a TIP Preview (MS677), a Quick Guide(MS678), and a Fact Sheet (MS676). 316

Brief
Interventions And Brief Therapies for Substance Abuse Treatment
An increasing number of individuals are presenting with substance abuse
disorders while at the same time, recent changes in the healthcare
delivery system are placing funding and time constraints on clinicians.
The need for cost-effective services to address substance use disorders
is great. As a result, clinicians, researchers, and policymakers are
turning their attention toward brief interventions and therapies. An
increasing body of literature confirms the effectiveness of brief
approaches in substance abuse treatment. This TIP links research to
practice by providing clinicians with information on these innovative
and shorter forms of treatment for selected populations of
substance-using individuals. 234pages |
| TIP 33 |
Treatment
for Stimulant Use Disorders
Over the past 20 years, stimulant use in the United States has risen

presents information on the nature and extent of cocaine and
methamphetamine abuse, and translates findings from clinical studies
into practical treatment guidelines. 226 pages |
TIP 32
(replaces TIP 4) |
Treatment
of Adolescents With Substance Use Disorders
Adolescents differ from adults both emotionally and physiologically.
Therefore, treatment of adolescent substance use disorders must reflect
their unique needs. In addition to gender, age, and cultural background,
treatment providers must address issues that play significant roles in
an adolescent's life, such as cognitive, emotional, physical, social,
and moral development, and family and peer environment. This TIP, a
companion to TIP 31, Screening and Assessing Adolescents for Substance
Use Disorders, focuses on how to tailor treatment for adolescents, as
well as on common and effective treatment components being used today. 126
pages |
TIP 31
(replaces TIP 3) |
Screening
and Assessing Adolescents For Substance Use Disorders
Substance use among adolescents is occurring at younger ages while
perceived risk of harm from substance use is declining among youth. As a
result, professionals who regularly work with adolescents should be able
to recognize the signs of substance use. This TIP presents information
on current procedures and instruments for detecting substance use
disorders in adolescents, conducting comprehensive assessments, and
beginning treatment planning. 136 pages |
| TIP 30 |
Continuity
of Offender Treatment for Substance Use Disorders From Institution to
Community
A large percentage of offenders in prison today are there because of
drug-related offenses, and it is clearly in the public interest for
offenders with substance use disorders to receive appropriate treatment
both in prison or jail and in the community after release. Numerous
studies show that those who remain dependent on substances are much more
likely to return to criminal activity. This TIP presents guidelines for
ensuring continuity of care as offenders with substance use disorders
move from incarceration to the community. 121 pages |
| TIP 29 |
Substance
Use Disorder Treatment for People With Physical and Cognitive
