There's no question that alcohol and drug use are factors in a majority
of arrests in this country and that working with offenders
with substance-abuse problems is difficult and complex work. Although no
intervention works 100 percent of the time, there
are evidence-based programs that reduce recidivism, return people to
productive lives, make communities safer, and save
taxpayers' money. In this issue of Resource Links, our contributors
present their thoughts about, research on, and experiences
with effective approaches with substance-abusing offenders. The authors
discuss problems in this field, but also solutions
based on proven interventions.
