  • Community-involved economic evaluation and development of a cost-effectiveness calculator for two peer-driven substance use interventions

    Open AccessSierra Castedo de Martell, Margaret B Moore et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2025

    Introduction: While peer-driven substance use interventions have proliferated across the U.S., economic evaluations of these interventions have lagged behind. A key characteristic of these interventions is the centrality of the "nothing about us without us" ethos, which should extend into economic evaluation research. To that end, this study sought to take a community-based participatory research (CBPR) approach to conducting a cost-effectiveness…

    Michael Mackert, Amanda Mabry et al.ARTICLEJournal of Social Work Practice…2014

    For college students recovering from substance addiction, the path to sobriety is fraught with challenges. Many campuses offer recovery support resources, but students indicate stigma associated with recovery prevents them from using these services. This problem could be ameliorated through communication campaigns addressing misperceptions of substance abuse and recovery.

  • Prevention and Intervention on the Care Continuum

    Elizabeth C Pomeroy, Lori Holleran SteikerARTICLESocial Work2012References: 7

    Historically, there has been a palpable schism between “preventionists” and “interventionists” in the field of social work. Although great strides have been made in evidence-based pursuits in both areas, very little overlap has been explored. In fact, the two realms are often viewed as being in competition with one another for resources, agency priorities, and funding. At the risk of recreating this dichotomy, we first examine these two distinct …

  • Dissonance-Based Interventions for Substance Using Alternative High School Youth

    Lori Holleran Steiker, Timothy Powell et al.ARTICLEPractice2011Cited by: 1References: 4

    This article describes an innovative new intervention tailored to older youth who are already abusing drugs, but who are not diagnostically ready for treatment. The basic tenet of this intervention is to utilize adolescents engaged in drug use as "experts" in the prevention curriculum adaptation activity. This activity then serves as a mechanism for their dissonance-based change. This process is designed to intervene with drug abusing youth prior…

    Social researchers continue to strive to understand the development and social decision-making processes of homeless adolescents.

This explor…
