The Goals of this Presentation are to: • review epidemiological data to illustrate the high rates of concurrent disorders, the rates of recovery across conditions, and their chronic nature • summarize the results of recent efforts to increase early identification of concurrent disorders in Ontario • examine how the results of recent experiments to improve the ways in which recovery is managed across time and multiple episodes of care

Investing in Treatment has a Positive Annual Return on Investment (ROI) • Substance abuse treatment has been shown to have a ROI of between $1.28 to $7.26 per dollar invested • Even the long term and more intensive Treatment Drug Courts programs have an average ROI of $2.14 to $2.71 per dollar invested This also means that for every dollar treatment is cut, we lose more money than we saved.

After Initial Treatment… • Relapse is common, particularly for those who: • Are Younger • Have already been to treatment multiple times • Have more mental health issues or pain • It takes an average of 3 to 4 treatment admissions over 9 years before half reach a year of abstinence • Yet over 2/3rds do eventually abstain Source: Dennis et al., 2005, Scott et al 2005

What does recovery look like on average? Duration of Abstinence 1-12 Months 1-3 Years 4-7 Years • More clean and sober friends • Less illegal activity and • incarceration • Less homelessness, violence and • victimization • Less use by others at home, work, • and by social peers • Virtual elimination of illegal activity and illegal • income • Better housing and living situations • Increasing employment and income • More social and spiritual support • Better mental health • Housing and living situations continue to improve • Dramatic rise in employment and income • Dramatic drop in people living below the poverty line Source: Dennis, Foss & Scott (2007)

Recovery Management Checkups (RMC) • Quarterly Screening to determining “Eligibility” and “Need” • Linkage meeting/motivational interviewing to: • provide personalized feedback to participants about their substance use and related problems, • help the participant recognize the problem and consider returning to treatment, • address existing barriers to treatment, and • schedule an assessment. • Linkage assistance • reminder calls and rescheduling • Transportation and being escorted as needed • Treatment Engagement Specialist
