About the Course

Chapter 6 of this TIP is a discussion of the advantages and the complexity of integrating Substance Abuse Treatment and Family Therapy. While many clinicians formally or informally include family issues to varying degrees, systematic collaboration is far from universal and many challenges exist. Policy, program planning, practical issues, and suggested research topics are discussed.

This course is based on Chapter 6 of Substance Abuse Treatment and Family Therapy: TIP 39 created by SAMHSA in 2015.
