Spells out everything parents need to know about the world of substance abuse treatment, and allows them to take control of an experience that can ultimately save their child’s life. Every day, more and more parents find themselves in the terrifying position of trying to figure out what to do upon discovering that their child is using drugs. "Going to rehab" is the solution to an addiction problem, yet the public perception of rehab becomes tainted as a result of frighteningly high relapse rates. The good news, however, is that REHAB WORKS! Becoming an "educated consumer" is the first step towards successfully helping a child overcome an addiction problem. The problem is, when a teen lands in substance abuse treatment, most parents have no idea how it works or what to expect. Learning how to utilize "the product" (treatment) more effectively allows the consumer to gain maximum benefit from the experience. Making sure that treatment is utilized effectively and thereby increasing the chances for success is the central theme of this book. A nationally recognized expert in the field of adolescent and young adult substance abuse treatment, Jim Savage, LCDC presents this information in an authentic and engaging manner. His own experience of having been a teenage drug addict and subsequent recovery figures significantly into his approach and provides unique credibility when addressing these issues. The result is an attractive blend of academic sophistication with an easy-going, personable style. Rehab Works! A Parent’s Guide To Drug Treatment is one of the most important books to come along with regard to improving success rates in addiction treatment–for parents as well as as the treatment industry in general.
