The content emphasizes long-term, cognitive-behavioral approaches that occupy substantial time, operate within highly structured and supervised therapeutic settings, and include a strong post-release component that connects ex-offenders to outside services. Research data links comprehensive treatment to reduced relapse and recidivism, while poorly researched programs, inadequate sanctions-without-treatment approaches, and education lacking counseling show limited or negative impact.

long term in nature and are based on acognitive,behavioral approach thatoccupies a significant portion of aninmate's time.  \nSuccessful programs also con-tain a strong post release componentthat links ex-offenders up to ser-vices on the outside,according toanalysts.  \nSubstance abuse programs withthe most success last a minimum offour to eight months,consuming 40to 70 percent of an offender's timeduring incarceration,says AllenAult,Ed.D.,chief of the NationalInstitute ofCorrections.  \nIn most cases,the programstend to \"work a lot better if they arein a segregated unit like a therapeu-tic community where everyone isworking on the same goals,\"saysAult,a former corrections commis-sioner in Colorado,Georgia andMississippi.  \nAnd for the most part,success-ful programs are “highly structured”and supervised by staff who controlboth the sanctions and positive rein-forcements,he stresses.  \nPerhaps most importantly,thepost release component serves asthe critical link in the continuum ofcare,ultimately determining thesuccess or failure of treatment pro-  \ngrams.The combination of long-term treatment and post release ser-vices has a profound impact on re-lapse and recidivism rates,prompt-ing dramatic decreases in both,ac-cording to research data.  \nSubstance abuse has been de-scribed as a bio-behavioral disorder,requiring treatment strategies thataddress every part of addiction—the biological and behavioral as-pects as well as the social context inwhich it occurs.  \nThe overall goal of treatmentfor the addicted offender is to curethe addiction while eliminating thepropensity for criminal behavior.Without a comprehensive approach,treatment programs may produce a\"clean criminal\"—someone who isno longer addicted to drugs but stillhas criminal intent,Ault says.  \n\"There is stilla theory out therethat nothing works,\"Ault explains.\"But there is a lot of research outthere that says things do work andcan make a drastic difference in re-ducing re-offending.This entailsstructured,cognitive behavioralprograms.”  \nNot surprisingly,that same re-search shows that“sanctions with-out treatment increases recidivism,regardless of what some politicians will tell you,”Ault says.By the same token,inappropriate interven-  \ntions—programs that are not basedon sound research or science—arelikely to increase recidivism as well,Ault points out.  \nMoreover,substance abuseeducation programs that do not con-tain a clinical or counseling compo-nent have little,if any,impact onreducing recidivism rates,accordingto the research.  \nIn recent years,the handling ofsubstance abuse treatment has \"un-dergone an epiphany,\"a revelationprompted by data showing the ef-fectiveness of comprehensivetreatment programs,says Leo Hay-den,President and Chief ExecutiveOfficer of the National Center forViolence Interruption at the Treat-ment Alternatives for Safe Commu-nities in Chicago.  \n“We thought in the early days ifyou cured the addiction then otherthings would go away,\"Hayden ex-plains.\"We now know that we haveto look at every
