Substance Abuse and Behavioral Health Treatment

Our logic model in PDF format.
[Part 1][Part 2]

A New Freedom offers comprehensive, flexible, and cost-effective substance abuse curriculum workbooks and behavioral health treatment resources for adult and juvenile correctional programs. These innovative state-of-the art materials provide quality programming at very reasonable cost.

We provide over 300 substance abuse curriculum workbooks, program activity materials, and similar resources to over 1,000 correctional facilities and programs nationwide. Our programs are especially affordable, as we provide you the rights to make unlimited copies for use on site.

Our resources address the most critical personal, environmental, and community risk factors, and build on the most important protective factors and assets. They are based on evidence-based concepts of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational enhancement (MET), the social learning model, and key coping and problem solving skills for both positive social development and relapse prevention (self-efficacy). The substance abuse curriculum workbooks are easy to implement by counselors, and even peer staff. Our resources include lesson plans, DSM-IV-based treatment planning support, behaviorally-stated objectives and links to state curriculum guidelines to support classroom-base programs. They have been used in numerous RSAT and other grant programs in adult and juvenile correctional settings.

Our materials include gender-specific materials for women, and over 60 workbooks are available in Spanish. We also provide ice-breaking and "program start-up" activities appropriate to different age groups and certain workbooks are also provided in several versions for adult and juvenile men and women. Many workbooks are appropriate for correctional in-cell use, and an extended set of resources supports the community reintegration process, focusing on the key risk factors affecting recidivism.

We are happy to provide specific quotations, and invite you to review the program overviews and sample materials on this site.
