TIP 39: Substance Abuse Treatment and Family Therapy

TIP 39, developed by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), introduces substance use disorder treatment and family therapy, and features models for integrating the two approaches to therapy. It also discusses cultural competency, considerations for specific populations, policy and program issues, and guidelines for assessing violence (SAMHSA, 2015).
