SA#3: Seeking Safety
|
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is an anxiety disorder that may result from exposure and sometimes multiple exposures to highly traumatic events such as child abuse, accidents, violent personal assaults, military combat, or natural or human caused disasters.
Research has documented a strong association between PTSD and substance abuse. One-third of people requiring substance abuse treatment have experienced significant traumatic events in their lives. For women seeking treatment the prevalence is even higher (up to 59%).

It combines science-based (1) parenting-skill training, (2) child life-skill building, and (3) family lifeskill education into a program that improves the child’s social/life skills and family functioning and protects the children from the long-term risks of drug abuse.
A nationally recognized program, SFP has been shown effective by numerous independent research studies and has been implemented worldwide. It was developed in the late 1980s by Karol Kumpfer, Ph.D. through a research grant funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse. There are now several versions of the original program that accommodate the needs of different age groups and at risk populations.

SA#1: Contingency Management (CM)
|
Contingency management (CM) is a motivational incentive intervention in which clients with substance use disorders receive small rewards for attending treatment, taking prescribed medication, providing negative urine samples, or complying with other defined treatment-related goals.
CM is based on the well-known theory that behaviors that are reinforced or rewarded will increase in frequency. The term CM comes from the concept that the reward is contingent on the successful achievement of the behavior that will be rewarded. It is a model that is used in nonclinical settings in everyday life: parents give rewards for good grades and employers give promotions for performing well on the job.
