Harm Reduction In Outpatient Drug-Free Substance Abuse Treatment Settings, Michael Eversman
Harm Reduction In Outpatient Drug-Free Substance Abuse Treatment Settings, Michael Eversman
Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)
In the United States, drug-free substance abuse treatment programs generally operate under an abstinence-only, disease model based service orientation. Citing several reasons, critics suggest disease model approaches hinder client utilization and retention within such services.

In addition, despite a body of narrative literature suggesting harm …

The Psychotherapeutic Use Of Imaginal Dialogue, Jenny Dillman Marks
Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)
An investigation of the scholarly literature uncovered deep schisms in the philosophy and theory of imagination stemming from long-standing debates.

Interventions involving imaginal dialogue are generally among those approaches that have not been adequately studied.

Using empowerment theory, predictors that captured the degree of ethnic diversity of an organization's staff and board, and whether or not consumers served on the staff or board, and whether having social workers as advocates were examined along with other control variables to explain the conditions …

Domestic Violence And Faith Communities : An Exploratory Study Examining Beliefs And Experiences Of Jews, Non-Jews, And Rabbis, Amanda Sisselman
Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)
Purpose and Background: The current study examines the link between beliefs and experiences around domestic violence and religion, seeking to understand more about the ways in which Jews understand and experience domestic violence, while also looking to examine the context of these results in terms of religious comparison. The literature shows a preliminary connection between religion and domestic violence, in that victims have utilized their faith and faith communities as coping resources, but have also reported negative experiences within their religious communities. The literature only alludes to potential connections between beliefs regarding domestic violence and religion. Existing studies use mainly …
