Families As a Resource in Recovery From Drug Abuse in New York City, 1999-2001
Description
This study examined La Bodega de la Familia, an
experimental program for drug-abusing offenders and their families in
New York City. The study evaluated the outcomes of substance abusers
and their families who participated in La Bodega's family case
management by comparing them to a group of similar families that did
not participate in the program. Data were collected on 93 La Bodega
participants and 88 comparison subjects. Data were gathered through
structured interviews conducted when subjects entered the study and
six months later. The first round of interviews was conducted from
January 1999 through August 2000, and the second round was conducted
between August 1999 and January 2001. The interviews were based on a
standardized instrument that assessed self-reported physical and
mental health, family functioning, and social support.
