SSI Receipt and Alcohol and Other Drug use among Former SSI DA&A Beneficiaries
Following termination of the SSI Drug Addiction and Alcoholism (DA&A) program, a nine-site study followed 1,764 randomly selected SSI beneficiaries over two years.

One-third of study respondents reported neither drinking nor using illegal drugs at baseline (just before the end of the program). Nevertheless, use of illegal drugs was 15 times more prevalent among the stu…
