SUMMARY
Allies, one of nine sites participating in the Substance Abuse Mental Health Services Administration's Women, Co-occurring Disorders and Violence Study, was developed through collaboration between California's San Joaquin County Health Care Services and ETR Associates. Allies was charged with developing and implementing integrated services for women with ADM disorders and abuse histories within the County. Stakeholders identified service enhancements that were implemented in alcohol and drug treatment programs: integrated case management, trauma groups, and integrated parenting classes. Approximately 400 providers attended training activities; 174 women participated. Allies experienced barriers and successes. Lessons learned may be useful for future change efforts.
