Description
Drug Courts in Operation: Current Research provides an in-depth look at an innovative approach to rehabilitating substance abusers. Drug courts offer their participants a chance to better themselves by providing support and structure to those that do not have it in their life. The book examines the history of drug courts as a principal treatment alternative to incarceration, outlines the risk factors of children living with drug-addicted parents, and introduces a program to help strengthen families. There is emphasis on the need for cultural and gender specific treatment plans, research on how drug court participants balance (or have difficulty balancing) the responsibilities of job and family with the program requirements, and reports on variables that predict engagement in treatment.
