Abstract

The TASC program (Treatment Alternatives for Safe Communities) in the U.S. provides case management as a means to empower justice-involved persons who have substance use disorders to successfully engage in drug treatment and other important services related to health care, housing, employment, education, and social support.

This presentation will highlight TASC’s case management strategies, and elements of evidence-based drug treatment services that are affiliated with the TASC program.
