Résumé :
This paper summarizes outcome findings from an evaluation of residential treatment projects funded by the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT), in the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, under its Residential Women and Children and Pregnant and Postpartum Women demonstration programs. It first examines client-level treatment outcomes as indicated by pre-post changes in drug and alcohol use, criminal involvement, economic well-being, parenting success, and other important outcome dimensions. Post-treatment status was assessed through interviews administered 6 months after discharge to a sample of approximately 1200 former clients from 32 treatment sites. The paper also examines projects' success in obtaining continuation funding after the initial 5-year CSAT grant ended. Project sustainability provides another major indicator of the perceived value and effectiveness of the treatment program's services. Key findings were that a majority of former clients (61%) reported being completely drug- and alcohol-free throughout the follow-up period, large pre-post improvements were noted in other important areas of client and family functioning, and most of the projects begun with CSAT seed-money support (92%) were able to continue operations after the grant support ended.
