History of Specialized Services for WomenHistory of Specialized Services for Women
NIDA 1974
Research demonstration projects for women’s treatment
Women’s special needs and the delineation of gender specific treatment strategies were identified over 20 years ago
Beschner, Reed, & Mondanaro (Eds) 1981Treatment services for drug dependent women

History of Specialized Services for WomenHistory of Specialized Services for Women
Federal grant programs, e.g. NIDA Perinatal 20 and CSAT pregnant and post-partum demonstration grants, provided support for development and enhancement of women’s treatment services in the late 80’s –’90’s

Specialized Treatment Services for Women Specialized Treatment Services for Women
Programs in US– Residential: 41% women-only
23% pregnant/postpartum women
(SAMHSA National Survey of Substance Abuse Treatment Services (N-SSATS) 2001)
Of women who need treatment only 20% receive treatment
(SAMHSA, OAS 2002)

Woman Centered Treatment ModelWoman Centered Treatment Model
Comprehensive treatment approach that addresses – Addiction– Medical/Psychiatric – Psychosocial– Parenting– Educational/Vocational
issues of both women and their children
![Page 9: Gender Differences in Treatment Needs, Services, Utilization, and Outcomes Karol Kaltenbach, PhD Department of Pediatrics Jefferson Medical College Thomas.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649eca5503460f94bd8ee8/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Specialized ProgramsSpecialized Programs
Women-only programs more likely to provide:Pregnancy, pediatric and children’s servicesClient advocacy/case managementClasses on social skills, practical skills, parenting, anger managementAssistance with housing and transportationPeer support groups and social outings
(Grella et al., 1999)
![Page 10: Gender Differences in Treatment Needs, Services, Utilization, and Outcomes Karol Kaltenbach, PhD Department of Pediatrics Jefferson Medical College Thomas.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649eca5503460f94bd8ee8/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Effectiveness of Specialized Treatment ServicesEffectiveness of Specialized Treatment Services
Residential– Women in women-only programs had
More time in treatment
More likely to complete treatment
(Grella, 1999)
![Page 11: Gender Differences in Treatment Needs, Services, Utilization, and Outcomes Karol Kaltenbach, PhD Department of Pediatrics Jefferson Medical College Thomas.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649eca5503460f94bd8ee8/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Effectiveness of Specialized Treatment ServicesEffectiveness of Specialized Treatment Services
Women in gender-specialized programs– Use more services throughout
treatment than women in traditional coed program
– Have higher rates of abstinence– More likely to see themselves as doing
well in treatment
(Nelson-Zupko, 1997)
![Page 12: Gender Differences in Treatment Needs, Services, Utilization, and Outcomes Karol Kaltenbach, PhD Department of Pediatrics Jefferson Medical College Thomas.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649eca5503460f94bd8ee8/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Effectiveness of Woman Centered TreatmentEffectiveness of Woman Centered Treatment
Treatment for Pregnant Women:– Increased Gestational Age, Birth-weight,
Apgar Scores– Less likely to require NICU services– Those admitted to NICU had shorter stays– Average net savings for women in
treatment of $4,644 per moth/infant pair
(Svikis, et.al., 1997)

Assessing Comprehensive Treatment Needs of WomenAssessing Comprehensive Treatment Needs of Women
Instruments– Most assessment tools are based primarily on
males– Addiction Severity Index
Most widely used standard data collection instrument
Initially developed and tested solely on malesAcceptable levels of reliability and validity with a number of populations
Limited in assessing critical areas for women

Treatment for WomenTreatment for Women
Need for continued research– Development of assessments that reflect
the complex issues of pregnant and parenting drug dependent women
– Systematic investigations of barriers to treatment
– Pharmacological treatment and pregnancy– Treatment outcomes for mother and child
