Understanding the Continuum of Care Needs of Women in Recovery

According to research, the best outcomes from treatment of substance use disorders have been seen in clients who participate in continuing care, such as medication-assisted treatment and Alcoholics Anonymous-style support programmes (McLellan et al. 2000). The GROW Continuum of Care module offers a model for sustaining abstinence and progress obtained in treatment. The Continuum of Care module will provide participants with the knowledge and skills needed to develop continuing care services for women in recovery.
