The approach reduces heavy, uniform therapy by assigning inmates at admission to three levels of need and using small peer groups, videos, worksheets, and counseling discussions to target dependency and behavior change.

new substance abuse treatmentprogram that will base care on needand continue access to services afterthe offender's release.  \nThere will also be more emphasison counseling and education in smallpeer groups than on direct medical in-tervention.The programs will beconducted in both male and femalefacilities.  \nThe Corrections Department es-timates 85 percent of entering in-mates have substance problems,butonly a few have received treatment inthe past because of prohibitive costs.  \nInstead of focusing intensive ef-forts on a small number of inmates asin the past,the department wouldchange the program to provide vari-ous levels of treatment based onanalysis of an offender's need.  \nIn the previous program,all of-fenders met together regardless of thelevel of their substance addictionsand all underwent the same set oftherapies.  \nThe new model would reachmore inmates at lower cost,providingminimal assistance in some cases andtight monitoring in others.  \nNew Hampshire would also putmore emphasis on substance abuseservice after release by helping reen-  \ntering offenders link up with serviceproviders in their communities.  \nThe reasoning is that inmatesonly rarely can access drugs and al-cohol in prison,but will return totheir old habits after release.  \nBy increasing emphasis on post-release oversight,the state hopes tobe more effective in long-term reha-bilitation.  \nPart of the program will involvemonitoring graduates after release todetermine whether the treatment con-tinues to be successful with the pas-sage of time.Corrections Commis-sioner Les Dolecal has assigned threestaff members to this facet of the pro-gram.  \nThe Substance Abuse Servicesprogram will counsel reentering of-fenders on where they can receivefollow-on treatment and assistance intheir home communities.  \nDuring classification at admis-sion,offenders are assigned to one ofthree levels of need.  \nSome may require intensive re-habilitation services while othersmight require only moderate over-sight.  \nAll of the classified inmates ini-tially meet in small Level 1 groups towatch videos on sexually transmitteddiseases,hepatitis C and the effects of  \nalcohol and drugs on the body.  \nThe prisoners will also be able to discuss with counselors and others inthe intimate groupings the reasons fortheir excessive use of drugs or alco-hol.  \nThe attendees complete work-sheets before and after the videos socounselors can learn whether any ofthe information in the films stuckwith the inmates.  \nAt this stage,the department re-classifies the offenders and advancesthose in need of more therapy to thesecond level.  \nAt Level 2,offenders attend atwo-hour class four days a week for24 weeks.  \nThey watch videos and counsel-ors lead discussions and role-playing.The inmates complete worksheetsand homework.  \nThe objective is to help the of-fenders recognize their dependencyand to begin to accept a change in be-havior.  \nFor the most seriously addicted,there is Level 3.Inmates attendclasses five times each week and,forthe most part,","cbCaiedsUlSI6aut","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiedsUlSI6aut","pdf",2642301,"English","# New
