This was the first study to rigorously compare an outpatient, community treatment to residential treatment for seriously psychiatrically impaired drug-involved adolescents who were referred for residential treatment. Study highlights include: * As in previous clinical trials, MDFT demonstrated extraordinary retention and engagement rates. In this study, of adolescents who were referred for residential care, 96.5% of MDFT youth completed treatment. * Residential treatment did not demonstrate greater effects than MDFT on any measure either in the short or long term. * MDFT youth reported greater improvements in mental health symptoms in the first two months of treatment. Youth in both treatments significantly reduced drug use and delinquency during this early phase. * 18 months after the start of treatment, youth in MDFT had maintained their treatment gains in substance use and delinquency more than youth in residential. The results counter conventional wisdom that youth with severe psychiatric and substance use comorbidities can only be adequately treated in a residential setting. Further, the findings demonstrate that MDFT is a highly effective alternative to residential treatment for youth. The study results were published this month in the Journal of Substance Abuse Treatment.
