“…Much has been devoted to either a description of various legal and civil approaches to addressing the substance abuse problem (15,16) or a theoretical and clinical discussion of the concept of coercion.

This research examined the extent to which various indicators of coercion were related to treatment retention in a gender-specific treatment program and a traditional outpatient program for pregnant and postpartum women who were mandated to enter treatment. Women who were given custody of their infant stayed in treatment longer than women who did not have custody. There was an interaction effect with women who had custody and were in the intensive day treatment program completing treatment at a much higher rate than those in the traditional program. Implications for social work professionals and policy makers are discussed.

“…Finally, clinical staff should establish liaisons with personnel from other human service programs. Such contacts could facilitate the use of the family as a support system, help motivate referrals, and reduce the denial of the problem on the part of the client and her family through constructive family confrontations (Leipman, Wolper, & Vazquez, 1982).…”
