Sinopsis :

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), and specifically, the National Mental Health and Substance Use Policy Laboratory (Policy Lab), is pleased to fulfill the charge of the 21st Century Cures Act to disseminate information on evidence-based practices and service delivery models to prevent substance misuse and help people with substance use disorders (SUD), serious mental illnesses (SMI), and serious emotional disturbances (SED) get the treatment and support they need.

Treatment and recovery for SUD, SMI, and SED can vary based on a number of geographic, socio-economic, cultural, gender, race, ethnicity, and age-related factors, which can complicate evaluating the effectiveness of services, treatments, and supports. Despite these variations, however, there is substantial evidence to inform the types of resources that can help reduce substance use, lessen symptoms of mental illness, and improve quality of life.

This Evidence-Based Resource Guide Series contains a comprehensive set of modules with information to improve health outcomes for people at risk for developing, living with, or recovering from mental illness and/or SUD. It is designed for practitioners, administrators, community leaders, and others considering an intervention for their organization or community.

A priority topic for SAMHSA is preventing human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) among people with mental illness and/or SUD and linking people with HIV and co-occurring mental illness and/or SUD to HIV care. This guide reviews research findings and literature related to this issue, examines emerging and best practices, and identifies challenges and strategies for implementation.
