| Interventions by Specialised AOD Clinicians in Justice Settings : a Review of Literature
Catalogue No:

(Oct2006)
Evidence suggests that a significant proportion of people in criminal justice settings in New Zealand, and internationally, use alcohol and other drugs (AOD) problematically (Whitney 1992, Lapham 2005, Peters and Wexler 2005). The literature indicates that involvement in criminal justice settings increases the chance of the identification of substance abuse problems, better engages people in treatment and delivers more successful treatment than for people in a general population (Project MATCH Research Group 1997, Miller et al 2000, Hussain et al 2005). |
