The described program provides extended interventions for Chicago adults who abuse alcohol or drugs and also have homeless experience. This program responds to evidence that (I) members of the relevant population cannot easily access either long-term substance abuse treatment or programs that serve other individuals who are homeless. (2) individuals who are both homeless and have substance abuse problems tend to be poorly matched to the programs to which they have access, and (3) a cycle of substance abuse and homelessness occurs as the lack of stable material, residential, and social support inhibits the commitment to recovery. There are two sets of interventions: a case management plus supported housing option that provides individuals with apartments for up to eight months while providing many other types of support, and a case management only option that provides help in locating residences along with the supports. Bothise a "progressive independence" approach which begins by ameliorating immediate tangible needs and builds toward a collaborative relatioship that focuses on other issues. Preliminary information suggests that the programs can be implemented in ways that deal with core client concerns and retain clients in treatment longer than is typical. |
