Breaking the Chains of Addiction takes readers on a compelling journey into the lives of fourteen individuals who plunged deep into the abyss of addiction, only to rise once again and triumph.

Authored by Chris Howe, this book offers encouragement and motivation to anyone who has been affected by addiction, whether firsthand or through a loved one. Each poignant narrative delves deep into the traumatic circumstances that led the individual into addiction and the diverse network of people, experiences, support systems, and techniques that enabled them to clamber back up onto solid ground and reclaim their lives.

Covering everything from substance abuse to behaviour compulsions, this book goes beyond mere narratives to underscore the transformative power of human connection and redemption. It serves as a beacon of hope, illustrating that recovery is within reach for everyone-no matter how tight addiction's grasp.

Substance Use Disorder Treatment for People with Physical and Cognitive Disabilities (Revised)
<b>NOTE: NO FURTHER DISCOUNT FOR THIS PRINT PRODUCT- OVERSTOCK SALE - Significantly reduced list price </b> <p/> This TIP, <i>Substance Use Disorder Treatment for People With Physical and Cognitive Disabilities</i>, is intended to enhance treatment providers' knowledge concerning people who have a physical or cognitive disability in addition to their substance use disorder. Treatment programs for substance use disorders already see many individuals with coexisting disabilities, but many providers fail to accommodate these individuals either because they are unaware of the disability or how accommodations can improve treatment outcomes (even though such accommodations are legally mandated). The first chapter defines and explains the issues involved in treating people with coexisting disabilities. Chapter 2 discusses how to screen for coexisting disabilities and how to adapt substance use disorder screenings for clients who have a disability. Chapter 3 discusses treatment planning and counseling&#x3b; it also describes how treatment can be modified to meet the particular needs of people with coexisting disabilities. Forming linkages with other service providers is the topic of Chapter 4, and Chapter 5 presents material for program administrators. In Appendix B, there is a comprehensive list of resources. Appendix C discusses the proper language to use when referring to people with disabilities. <i>Alcohol and Drug Programs and the Americans With Disabilities Act</i>, a pamphlet from the Pacific Research and Training Alliance, is reproduced in Appendix D.
