Outcome of a unique youth drug abuse program: a follow-up study of clients of Straight, Inc
1989
Friedman, A.S. | Schwartz, R. | Utada, A.
A unique feature of the 12-hour per day Straight, Inc., program is temporary placement of the client with the family of a client who has progressed further in the program. Eighty-five (85) percent of the clients reported that their drug use was less at follow-up than when they started in the program. Follow-up reports by parents indicated their impression of a statistically significant decrease in the proportion of clients who were still involved in substance use. Statistically significant improvement at follow-up was also reported by the clients on seven of eight other selected outcome criteria (e.g., suicidal thoughts, physical violence, number of arrests, etc.). The majority of the clients reported that they were "satisfied" with the program (70%), that the program helped them (74%), and, specifically, that the program helped them with their relationship with their parents 69%).
