“…Adolescent-onset depression was protective against adult imprisonment. This association has also been observed in the general population [14], and further suggests a possible influence of externalising vs internalising behaviours and disorders in likelihood of imprisonment.…”

“…As in the general population [14], there was no association between most of the assessed psychiatric disorders (borderline personality disorder; post-traumatic stress disorder; panic disorder) and imprisonment. Conduct disorder was positively associated with imprisonment in unadjusted analyses, but was not statistically significant in multivariable analyses.…”

“…Substance use disorders, but not mental illness, have also been associated with increased risk of imprisonment [14]. Despite the known risks and poor outcomes of imprisonment for opioid dependent people, and the identification of factors that increase imprisonment risk in the general population, the correlates of imprisonment of opioid dependent people are largely unstudied.…”

Introduction and Aims Involvement in the criminal justice system is common among opioid dependent people. This study aimed to determine prevalence and adolescent-onset correlates of adult imprisonment among opioid dependent men and women in New South Wales, Australia. Design and Methods Participants were recruited from opioid substitution therapy clinics and completed a face-to-face, structured interview. Data were collected on demographic characteristics, family history, substance dependence and psychiatric disorders. Adolescent-onset correlates of adult incarceration (including interactions with gender) were examined using logistic regression. Results Opioid dependent men were significantly more likely than opioid dependent women to report adult imprisonment (66% vs 40%; P <0.001). In a multivariable logistic regression model, older age, male gender, having completed high school education only, having dependent children or living independently prior to age 18 years, a history of juvenile detention, and adolescent-onset opioid dependence were all significantly associated with increased odds of adult imprisonment. Adolescent-onset depression was associated with a halving of odds of adult imprisonment. The only variable for which we observed an interaction with gender was juvenile detention, which had a significantly greater impact on the odds of imprisonment for men than women. Discussion and Conclusions More than half of this sample of opioid dependent adults had a history of imprisonment. Variables that are associated with imprisonment in the general population, such as childhood maltreatment, were not important in predicting imprisonment in this sample. Further study is required to understand the interaction between sex and juvenile detention in predicting adult imprisonment.

“…1,5 Income support can reduce the prevalence of risky and costly behaviours in this population. 6,7 Research suggests that homeless people with mental illness may have difficulty accessing disability benefits 8,9 and that their rate of unemployment exceeds 80%, [10][11][12] reducing their options for subsistence. Additionally, the highly visible act of panhandling is the focus of much public attention and has a negative impact on society's opinion of this vulnerable segment of society.…”

Objectives:Research suggests that homeless people with mental illness may have difficulty obtaining employment and disability benefits. Our study provides a comprehensive description of sources of income and employment rates in a large Canadian sample.Methods: Participants (n = 2085) from the 5 sites of the At Home/Chez Soi study were asked about their income, employment, and desire for work during the pre-baseline period. The proportion of participants employed, receiving government support, and relying on income from other activities were compared across sites, as were total income and income from different sources. Generalized linear models were used to identify participant characteristics associated with total income.Results: Unemployment ranged from 93% to 98% across 5 sites. The per cent of participants who wanted to work ranged from 61% to 83%. Participants relied predominantly on government assistance, with 29.5% relying exclusively on welfare, and 46.2% receiving disability benefits. Twenty-eight per cent of participants received neither social assistance nor disability income. Among the 2085 participants, 6.8% reported income from panhandling, 2.1% from sex trade, and 1.2% from selling drugs. Regression models showed that income differed significantly among sites and age groups, and was significantly lower for people with psychotic illnesses. Conclusion:These results suggest that homeless people with mental illness are predominantly unemployed, despite expressing a desire to work. In Canada, this group relies predominantly on welfare, but has access to disability benefits and employment insurance. These findings highlight the importance of developing effective interventions to support employment goals and facilitate access to benefits. W W W Emploi et revenu des personnes sans abri souffrant de maladie mentale dans un vaste échantillon canadienObjectifs : La recherche suggère que les personnes sans abri souffrant de maladie mentale peuvent éprouver des difficultés à obtenir un emploi et des prestations d'invalidité. Notre étude offre une description détaillée des sources de revenu et des taux d'emploi dans un vaste échantillon canadien. Méthodes :Les participants (n = 2085) de 5 sites de l'étude At Home/Chez Soi ont été interrogés au sujet de leur revenu, leur emploi, et leur désir de travailler durant la période d'avant-départ de l'étude. La proportion des participants employés, recevant un soutien du gouvernement, et s'appuyant sur le revenu d'autres activités a été comparée entre les sites, tout comme le revenu total et le revenu de différentes sources. Des modèles linéaires généralisés ont servi à identifier les caractéristiques des participants associées au revenu total.Résultats : Le chômage se situait de 93 % à 98 % dans les 5 sites. Le pourcentage de participants qui voulaient travailler allait de 61 % à 83 %. Les participants se fiaient principalement sur l'aide du gouvernement, 29,5 % vivant exclusivement de l'aide sociale, et 46,2 % recevant des prestations d'invalidité. Vingt-huit pour cent...

In recent years there has been growing recognition of the role of trauma in substance abuse treatment; however, only 20% of outpatient treatment programs report offering trauma services. We conducted a secondary analysis of the 2012 National Survey of Substance Abuse Treatment Services (N-SSATS) and explore how demographic, population served, and organization variables distinguish those programs that offer trauma services from those that do not. In this article, we present the findings, which revealed that organizational structure, process, and population served variables were the most important predictors of trauma services. Implications for social work practice in the addictions are discussed.In recent years there has been an increased recognition of the impact of trauma on substance use disorders and the need to include trauma services for those enrolled in substance abuse treatment programs (Substance
