But integrating evidence-based addiction treatment into community corrections is no small feat—costs, personnel decisions, and effective, appropriate interventions are all critical considerations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFeaturing the first model of implementation strategies linking these fields, \u003ci\u003eImplementing Evidence-Based Practices in Community Corrections and Addiction Treatment \u003c\/i\u003esets out criteria for identifying practices and programs as evidence. The book’s detailed blueprint is based on extensive research into organizational factors (e.g., management buy-in) and external forces (e.g., funding, resources) with the most impact on the adoption of evidence-based practices, and implementation issues ranging from skill building to quality control. With this knowledge, organizations can set realistic, attainable goals and achieve treatment outcomes that reflect the evidence base. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncluded in the coverage:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetermining evidence for “what works.”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrganization change and technology transfer: theory and literature review.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe current state of addiction treatment and community corrections.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnique challenges of evidence-based addiction treatment under community supervision.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAssessing suitability of evidence-based practice in real-world settings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA conceptual model for implementing evidence-based treatment in community corrections.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eImplementing Evidence-Based Practices in Community Corrections and Addiction Treatment\u003c\/i\u003e is a breakthrough volume for graduate- and postgraduate-level researchers incriminology, as well as policymakers and public health researchers. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-12-11\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781461462606\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4614-0412-5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 318\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49472490963084,"sku":"9781461462606","price":116.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781461462606.jpg?v=1777990221","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781461462606","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
