The Methamphetamine Recovery Services (MARS) program expands the capacity and enhances substance abuse and mental health treatment to existing drug court participants. There is a growing population of offenders presenting with co-occurring methamphetamine dependence and mental health disorders. The MARS program will address the need for cognitive behavioral therapy and integrated mental health services for methamphetamine users with co-occurring disorders, including gender-based treatment of disorders, such as PTSD, that are the result of trauma. MARS will use two evidence based programs: 1) an 18-month extended matrix Intensive Outpatient Treatment Model (modified CBT); and 2) Seeking Safety curriculum, CBT program for women with co-occurring substance abuse and PTSD. MARS will serve an estimated 252 unduplicated participants over the three year grant.
