Some women experience the trifecta of being pregnant, having a substance use disorder problem, and being incarcerated. Similar to other incarcerated women, pregnant women experience physical and mental health challenges, but these are compounded because they often come into jail with generally poorer health status, limited or no pre-natal care, and chronic poor nutrition (Swavola et al., 2016). While many incarcerated women have histories of trauma and substance use before their incarceration, one study reported that over 60% of incarcerated pregnant women had histories of family violence before age 18, and close to half had used drugs and alcohol during the past year as well as during their pregnancy (Fogel & Belyea, 2001). Some correctional facilities are willing to offer medication assisted treatment (MAT) during a pregnancy but not after the birth of the child (Sufrin et al., 2020), and few jail facilities offer gender responsive services during pregnancy or post-partum services after delivery. The needs of incarcerated pregnant women continue through their incarceration and as they reenter the community upon their release. Recently released pregnant women with substance use problems, need to quickly find prenatal care and plan for delivery, housing, and the initiation or continuation of treatment for substance use and other mental health conditions. Today we talk with Dr. Thomas LeBel, Associate Professor of Criminal Justice and Criminology at the Helen Bader School of Social Welfare at the University of WisconsinMilwaukee, who has focused a significant portion of his research on issues of reentry. In addition, Dr. LeBel and I have conducted a number of different studies in a large Midwestern jail with women, most of whom had substance use issues, some of whom were mothers and some of whom were pregnant.
一些女性经历了怀孕、药物使用障碍问题和入狱的三重困境。与其他被监禁的妇女类似,孕妇也面临着身体和精神健康方面的挑战,但这些挑战更加复杂,因为她们入狱时通常健康状况较差,产前护理有限或没有,而且长期营养不良(Swavola等人,2016)。虽然许多被监禁的妇女在被监禁之前都有创伤和药物使用史,但一项研究报告称,超过60%的被监禁的孕妇在18岁之前有家庭暴力史,近一半的人在过去一年以及怀孕期间使用过毒品和酒精(Fogel & Belyea, 2001年)。一些惩教机构愿意在怀孕期间提供药物辅助治疗(MAT),但在孩子出生后不提供(Sufrin et al., 2020),很少有监狱设施在怀孕期间或分娩后提供性别敏感服务。被监禁的孕妇的需求在她们被监禁期间持续存在,并在她们获释后重新进入社区。最近释放的有药物使用问题的孕妇,需要迅速找到产前护理和计划分娩,住房,以及开始或继续治疗药物使用和其他精神健康状况。今天我们采访了托马斯·勒贝尔博士,他是威斯康辛大学密尔沃基分校海伦·巴德社会福利学院刑事司法和犯罪学副教授,他的研究主要集中在重返社会问题上。此外,勒贝尔博士和我在中西部的一个大型监狱里对女性进行了许多不同的研究,其中大多数人都有药物使用问题,其中一些是母亲,一些是孕妇。

As social workers in recovery, we have experienced new stresses in our wellbeing as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Similarly, we have observed colleagues encountering heightened concerns regarding these issues; those who use alcohol and other drugs (AOD) seem to be doing so with greater fervor, and coworkers in recovery have expressed fearing or experiencing relapse during this period of unrest. In response to these concerns, it is important for social work students, educators, and practitioners to engage more openly in discussions about our substance use and misuse. With these issues in mind, we reflect on our recent recovery and work-related experiences. In this paper, we also discuss literature regarding social workers’ AOD problems – including findings from our recent study of social workers’ wellness – and offer recommendations about how we might engender more critical and compassionate conversations regarding substance misuse and behavioral health treatment.

ABSTRACT There are many challenges to treating people for a substance use disorder. This study focuses on factors that might predict how long people stay in treatment, and whether it is enough time to complete treatment. Using data from a statewide subsample of the TEDS-D dataset, the results showed that free treatment leads to increased length of stay, while substance use frequency and days waiting to enter treatment have a negative effect on length of stay. Further length of stay predicted treatment completion. We also conducted a post hoc analysis looking at differences between inpatient and outpatient treatment settings. This study offers information that can support efforts to keep clients long enough in treatment to complete it as part of their recovery.

ABSTRACT Despite the rapid expansion of legalized gambling, few social workers are trained to identify problem gambling symptoms. This study explored gambling knowledge, behavior, and problem symptoms in a sample of 1,777 clinical social workers through an online survey. Findings indicate about 77% of social workers gambled and more than 4% of those who gambled reported at least one problem gambling symptom. Participants answered less than half of the knowledge questions correctly, and a majority were unaware of the current diagnostic classification for gambling disorder or the legal age for gambling. Results of a multivariate regression analysis found that social workers in practice 8 to 15 years, employed in substance treatment facilities or universities, and/or with training in gambling treatment had higher levels of knowledge about gambling and gambling treatment. Findings underscore the need for social work schools and organizations to prioritize education and training for problem gambling identification and treatment.

ABSTRACT The Opioid epidemic and the subsequent Opioid use disorders (OUD) stemming from this epidemic have devastated individuals, families, and communities. These impacts have an outsized effect on rural communities and are exacerbated by the discrepancy in best practice recommendations that call for a resource-intensive framework of integrated treatment options and the limited treatment resources found in rural communities. This pilot study explores data collected from several members (n=45) of an establishing ambulatory clinic-based treatment team (composed of medical, behavioral health, and administrative staff) from a network of five primary care sites, which were developed to address OUD in rural America Appalachia. Participants completed the Assessment for Collaborative Environments (ACE-15) and four open ended questions about team integration. The findings call for changes to OUD treatment from policy makers and providers, adaptations to higher education focus in social work, competency-based learning, a call for action in stigma reduction, and interagency collaboration.
