Relapse Prevention
This group focuses on the challenges faced by a person in recovery which include recognizing triggers, red flags, and emotions. Coping skills will be developed as well as safety plans to address risky situations from leading to a relapse. The group will also focus on the importance of a sober support system and sober activities for maintaining sobriety. The goal of this group is to gain the ability to identify situations that put sobriety at risk and the tools needed to remain sober. The curriculum used is the Matrix Model from SAMSHA RP lesson 1-33. Clients are provided the matrix workbook for this class. This course is listed on the evidence-based practice list at http://www.nrepp.samhsa.gov/. The rationale for this is that clients in this group have a basic understanding of the effects of mood altering chemicals, but lack basic skills necessary for them to maintain sobriety. In outpatient, all clients attending this group are 18 and over. Completion of this group occurs after clients have completed all 16 sessions in the manual and have at least a demonstrated period of 90 day of sobriety. Facilitation of this group is only by QPSUD professionals who have demonstrated and documented clinical competency. Training required for this group is basic competency (a minimum of 8 weeks of co-facilitation, review of EBP curriculum and clinical documentation of curriculum is observed and documented).
MRT
This group is intended to assist people in unlocking the “prisons” we place ourselves in. This does not just mean incarceration, but also other life areas where we hold ourselves back from successful and sober lifestyles. Clients move from feeling trapped, to having a sense of accomplishment, and the ability to attain goals in recovery and in life. Homework is required in this group and there is a required workbook which attendees must purchase at the cost of $30. The goal of this group is to let go of unhealthy behaviors and patterns and to move forward into being a productive member of society. The curriculum used is the same as developed by Corrections Counseling, INC and approved by the Idaho Department of Correction and listed at http://www.nrepp.samhsa.gov/. The facilitator is a CCI- MRT certified facilitator. In outpatient, the group is open to individuals aged 18 and over and the adult curriculum and workbook is used.
Co-Occurring Disorders
This group focuses on the mental health component of recovery. We focus on healthy ways to manage mental health issues and/or diagnoses to avoid self-medication. People in this group are not required to have a mental health diagnosis or be taking medications to attend this group. We also address grief and loss and self-esteem issues. The curriculum is the Seeking Safety curriculum (http://www.nrepp.samhsa.gov/) supplemented with other best practice material regarding COD issues. For instance COD videos from RADAR are shown. The goal of this group is to stabilize and address mental health issues so that they do not lead to relapse or continued use. Completion of this group occurs when the facilitator, staff physician, and primary therapist determine stability in dimension 3 and the lack of need for continued attendance which is documented in the client’s chart. In outpatient, all clients attending this group are 18 and over and are separated by gender. This group is facilitated by a master’s level clinician who is a qualified SUD professional with the support of a medical doctor with a specialty in addictions. Training required for this group is basic competency (a minimum of 8 weeks of co-facilitation, review of EBP curriculum and clinical documentation of curriculum is observed and documented).
Breaking the Chains of Trauma
Breaking the Chains of Trauma is a 67-page, 8-session MRT adaptation that incorporates all of the key issues identified in SAMHSA’s Trauma-Informed Treatment Protocol. Breaking the Chains of Trauma is targeted toward individuals struggling with trauma-related symptoms. The program is most beneficial in treating recovery offenders, mental health clients, substance abusers, and individuals struggling with day-to-day responsibilities. The program consists of 8-modules completed in 8 group sessions supplemented by several sessions with a counselor or facilitator. Clients’ complete homework for each module prior to coming to group. In group, each client presents his or her homework to the group. The facilitator then passes the client on to the next module or has him or her redo the homework based on objective criteria. Groups are open-ended meaning that new clients can enter an ongoing group at any time.
Untangling Relations
This group is intended to assist people in the process of understanding and coping with problem relationships and begin to take steps in dealing with codependence. Clients move from self-sacrifice and resentments in relationships to finding their true selves and honesty in relationships. Homework is required in this group and there is a required workbook which is provided to attendees at no cost. The goal of this group is to let go of unhealthy behaviors in relationships that lead to codependence.

Coping with Anger
This group is designed to be completed in eight sessions.

The program is task oriented and requires clients to complete homework assignments between sessions. The curriculum is listed as an evidence-based practice program at http://www.nrepp.samhsa.gov/. Clients are provided with the “Coping with Anger” workbook for this class.

CBISA
The Cognitive-Behavioral Interventions for Substance Abuse (CBI-SA) curriculum is designed for individuals that are moderate to high need in the area of substance abuse and well suited for criminal justice populations. The curriculum can be delivered as a stand-alone substance abuse intervention, or incorporated into a larger program, particularly those designed for clients in the corrections system. As the name of the curriculum suggests, this intervention relies on a cognitive behavioral approach to teach participants strategies for avoiding substance abuse. The program places heavy emphasis on skill building activities to assist with cognitive, social, emotional, and coping skill development. Such cognitive behavioral strategies have routinely demonstrated high treatment effects, including when used with a correctional population. The curriculum is non-proprietary, but training is required. The components of the curriculum include pretreatment (optional), Motivational Enhancement, Cognitive Restructuring, Emotional Regulation, Social Skills, Problem Solving, and Relapse Prevention. An adolescent version of the curriculum is available, offering more appropriate examples for the juvenile population. This group is a 38 session CBT-based SA curriculum developed by UC; has pretreatment, motivational enhancement, cog restructuring, emotional regulation, social skills, problem solving, relapse prevention component and aftercare component. CBI-SA is listed as an evidence-based practice program at http://www.nrepp.samhsa.gov/. Clients are provided with required handouts at each session. This group is open to adult age 18 and over. Facilitation of this group is only by QPSUD professionals who have been certified by the University of Cincinnati Corrections Training Institute.
CBISA-AP
This is the aftercare component for clients who have completed the 26-week CBI-SA Curriculum and have a continued need for treatment. CBI-SA is listed as an evidence-based practice program at http://www.nrepp.samhsa.gov/. Clients are provided with required handouts at each session. This group is open to adult age 18 and over. Facilitation of this group is only by QPSUD professionals who have been certified by the University of Cincinnati Corrections Training Institute.
Men In Recovery
Helping Men Recover is the first gender-responsive, trauma-informed treatment program for men. The materials are grounded in research, theory, and clinical practice and include a facilitator’s guide and a participant’s workbook. This is the men’s version of the widely used, evidence-based women’s curriculum, Helping Women Recover. This curriculum addresses what is often missing in prevailing treatment modes: a clear understanding of the impact of male socialization on the recovery process, a consideration of the relational needs of men, and a focus on the issues of abuse and trauma. The Helping Men Recover facilitator’s guide for an 18-week session program is a step-by-step manual containing the theory, structure, and content needed for running groups. The participant’s workbook allows men to process and record the therapeutic experience. The program model is organized into four modules that emphasize the core areas of men’s recovery: self, relationships, sexuality, and spirituality. The materials are designed to be user-friendly and self-instructive. This allows the Helping Men Recover program to be implemented by a staff with a wide range of training and experience.
