The Substance Abuse Treatment for Persons with Co-Occurring Disorders
Inservice Training manual is based on Treatment Improvement Protocol (TIP) 42,
Substance Abuse Treatment for Persons with Co-Occurring Disorders. Provided
by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administrations Center for
Substance Abuse Treatment, TIPs are best-practice guidelines for the treatment
of substance use disorders.
The Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT) draws on the experience and
knowledge of clinical, research, and administrative experts to produce the TIPs.
CSAT works with the State Alcohol and Drug Abuse Directors to generate topics
based on the fields current need for information and guidance.
After selecting a topic, CSAT invites staff from Federal agencies and national
organizations to a Resource Panel that recommends specific areas of focus as
well as resources for developing the TIP content. These recommendations are
communicated to a Consensus Panel composed of experts on the topic who have
been nominated by their peers. This Panel participates in a series of discussions;
the information and recommendations on which they reach consensus form the
foundation of the TIP. A Panel Chair (or Co-Chairs) ensures that the guidelines
mirror the results of the groups collaboration.
While each TIP strives to include an evidence base for the practices it
recommends, CSAT recognizes that the field of substance abuse treatment is
evolving and research frequently lags behind the innovations pioneered in the
field. A major goal of each TIP is to convey front-line information quickly but
responsibly. For this reason, recommendations in the TIP are attributed to either
Panelists clinical experience or the literature.
To facilitate the transfer of science to service, the Substance Abuse Treatment
for Persons with Co-Occurring Disorders Inservice Training manual provides a
structure for introducing addiction counselors and other practitioners to the stateof-
the-art information on the rapidly advancing field of co-occurring substance use
and mental disorders provided in TIP 42.
