Helping Women Recover: A Program for Treating Substance Abuse and Beyond Trauma: A Healing Journey for Women are manual-driven treatment programs that, when combined, serve women in criminal justice or correctional settings who have substance use disorders and are likely to have co-occurring trauma histories (i.e., sexual or physical abuse). The two programs can be delivered conjointly as one intervention (as in the case of the research reviewed for this summary) or separately as independent, stand-alone treatments. The goals of the intervention for women in a criminal justice or correctional setting are to reduce substance use, encourage enrollment in voluntary aftercare treatment upon parole, and reduce the probability of reincarceration following parole. The trauma-informed treatment sessions are delivered by female counseling staff (who may be assisted by peer mentors, typically women serving life sentences) to groups of 8-12 female inmates, in a nonconfrontational and nonhierarchical manner.
