HUS1428 — Addiction Treatment Delivery Systems
This course is designed to survey the modalities of addiction treatment. The course will study federal and state systems as well as private-not-for-profit and private-for-profit programs. All of these will be described using examples drawn from local agencies, the diverse populations they serve, and the politics and economics of the systems. This course will also present a critical exploration of the history and theory defining problems of addiction treatment and the characteristics and career issues of an addiction treatment services worker.
