|December 1, 1985
Abstract:
The foregoing description of program concept forms the philosophic basis for our ambulatory management of adolescents alcohol and drug abuse. The malleability of the adolescent and young adult is an advantage in helping him to adapt to a treatment program that is structured, consistent, and fair. The possibility of alternatives within that framework allows significant chances for success, thereby changing a negative lifestyle to one that meets the needs of the individual as required by his environment.
