Abstract:The present report describes the client flow through rehabilitation systems of the 35 NHTSA funded Alcohol Safety Action Projects (ASAPs) during the 1972-1974 period of project operations, summarizes project initiated analyses of treatment program effectiveness, and reports program level (across project) analyses of total treatment system and individual treatment modality effectiveness based upon rearrest recidivism (for alcohol related offenses) data reported by the projects. During the 1972-1974 period addressed by this report, a total of 140,540 court referred clients were exposed to a variety of ASAP supported or coordinated rehabilitation programs, at a cost to the ASAPs of $5,346,502. The most extensively used treatment alternatives were ASAP initiated alcohol safety schools, although substantial use was also made of community alcohol rehabilitation resources. Evaluation of ASAP rehabilitation system effectiveness was hampered, at both program and project levels, by a lack of adequate experimental designs which provided no-treatment groups whose performance could be compared to that of treatment groups. Some indications of program effectiveness were found, particularly for problem drinkers. /Abstract from report summary page/
