Post a comparison of the Alcoholics Anonymous model, the Narcotics Anonymous model, and the SMART Recovery model.
- Describe how the three models are similar and how they are different in their theoretical foundation, approach, and format.
- Imagine you have a large and diverse caseload of clients with substance use disorders. Who among your clients might find Alcoholics Anonymous helpful? Who might you refer to Narcotics Anonymous? Which of your clients might gain greater benefit from Smart Recovery? Why? What other community programs are you aware of that could offer a different type of support to your clients in their recovery journeys?
- Identify which of these community support programs might be beneficial to the client in your chosen case and explain your reasoning.
