< Back to All Resources

As part of its commitment to ensure that people have access to effective treatment and supportive services that promote their recovery, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT) has prepared two papers on family-centered treatment for women with substance use disorders. Family-Centered Treatment for Women with Substance Use Disorders – History, Key Elements and Challenges introduces, defines, and discusses the
concepts and implementation challenges of an evolving family-centered treatment approach for women with substance use disorders. The companion paper, Funding Family-Centered Treatment for Women with Substance Use Disorders, identifies and discusses potential sources of funding for comprehensive family-centered treatment, and provides suggestions for how States and substance abuse treatment providers can strengthen their overall financing strategies.
