Résumé :
This study examines factors associated with retention at 50 projects funded by the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment, in the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, under its Residential Women and Children and Pregnant and Postpartum Women (RWC/PPW) Demonstration Program. These programs provided long-term, intensive residential treatment for pregnant and parenting women and their children. Data for this study were collected from 3265 clients from 24 six-month and 26 twelve-month RWC/PPW projects, admitted to and discharged from treatment between January 1, 1995 and March 31, 2001. Results from an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model indicate that, for both 6- and 12-month projects, significant predictors of retention include: bringing children into treatment, age, and coercion (either through CJS or CPS actions). In six-month projects, longer LOS was also associated with frequency of client-counselor contact, as well as with pregnancy status. Taken together, these findings suggest that enabling parenting women to remain together with their children during residential treatment is an important key to achieving the extended period of stay needed to accomplish treatment objectives.
