| Project Description: |
| The Village is seeking to extend treatment services for adolescent girls, ages 11-17, who have co-occurring disorders (substance abuse and mental health). Girls spend up to 6 months in residental treatment at The Village where they receive drug treatment, psychiatric services, family reunification, vocational and academic training. The University of Miami is a collaborator with this project, working with the The Village in the National Institute on Drug Abuse Clinical Trials Network. Research that comes from the Clinical Trials will add valuable information regarding "best parctices" treatment and allow policy makers to administer more efficient and effective services. |
