STATE OF HAWAii'S SUBSTANCE ABUSE OUTPATIENT PROGRAM
(FORMERLY LEVEL II)
Levei Ii primary treatment services utilize a cognitive behavioral treatment component lasling
approximately 80 hours, meeting twice per week, over a t\Nenty~week period. The curriculum
utHlzed is The Residential Drug Abuse Treatment Program, Four (4) selected Journals are used
as a stand-alone program resulting In a self~assessment Each Journal systematically buHds on
the previous Journal, thereby Increasing the ievel knowiedge and awareness,
Level II services are for inmates who are at lower risk criminal conduct and meet diagnostic
criteria for substance abuse or dependence, They have had minimal disruption in their
psyChosocial or vocational functioning,

SERVICE ACTIVITIES
A. Assessment services and treatment planning

Individuals will be referred for treatment based on the LSI and TCU CJ Forms (Intake &
Initial) and TCCUDSII, a mUlti-leveled assessment instrument which will indicate level of
risk, level of criminogenic needs, and substance abuse problems across 6 domains,
involvement, disruption, anti-social, emotional, defensiveness and motivation
The scope of the assessments shall include a full analysis of the offender's strengths and
weaknesses as determined from an evaluation of the following areas: current health status,
medical history, alcohol and drug use history, emotional and behavioral functioning, social
history, family background, relationships, legaillistory, occupational and educational history,
degree of denial, readiness for treatment, behavioral performance while incarcerated, as
wei! as other pertinent information available,
An individualized comprehensive treatment pian shall be developed from the LSI and TCU
CJ Forms (Intake & Initial) and TCCUDSII to those who have been identified as having
moderate to serious substance abuse problems and who have been accepted for admission
to structured Level II group education and treatment services, Treatment plans must
include, at a minimum, the following information:
•
•
•
•
•
•

Identification of inmate's problem areaSi
Type(s) of treatment services recommended;

Eacn
participant's treatment plan and progress will be

Attachment 1

APPENDIX B

reviewed npnr;rHr,,,:;,! and updalted as necessary by P(.mnr"rn staff
As an inmate progresses through treatment, the plan shaH be revie'vved on a monthly basis
and updated as needed.
Periodic update and review of treatment plans shall occur while participating offenders are
receiving structured educational and treatment services and individual counseling services.
Treatment plans for alt sentenced offenders participating in the substance abuse treatment
continuum shall be reviewed and updated prior to the inmate's release from the correctional
facility.
B. Treatment Services
Following assessment and development of an individualized treatment plan, each sentenced
offender shaH receive a substance abuse treatment continuum aimed to provide target
group inmates with a structured program of cognitivelilfe skills training, and group
counseling with a behavior/cognitive focus rather than a purely educational or twelve-step
oriented approach as a means of facilitating each offender!s recovery and preparation for
eventual discharge and release Into community status.
The Level II Program shall oonsist of Treatment Groups held not less than twioe each week
for a period of two hours per group covering the four selected Journals of the RDAP
curriculum that address cognitive restructuring and initial in-roads to cognitive processes.
with homework and Journal requirements outside of the classroom for a period of 20 weeks.
Contingent upon inmate availability and meeting room size. the format for treatment groups
shall consist of two weekly sessions of 2 hours each, as follows:
•

A weekly process or focus group with a maximum of 18 inmates each facilitated by one
counselor; and

•

Each of the 18 participating inmates will receive four (4) hours of structured group
counseling per week.
Criteria for admission, discharge and re-admission to the group will be based upon multiple
factors. Criteria for admission Includes:

1. Inmate is referred for treatment by Department staff.

2. Inmate has been assessed as having a moderate to serious substance abuse problem.
3. Inmate chooses to participate, 1,8,; voluntary admission.

4. Inmate's treatment plan specifies Level l! group treatment as part of the overall
rehabiiitation plan.
5.

Inmate's current behavior in the correctional

merits the opportunity to participate.

Criteria for clinical discharge from the group are based upon attendance, participation.
conformity to rules, absence of dirty urinalysis tests. and progress made regard~ng
completion of individualized treatment plan
Participants may be terminated

Criteria for re~admitting lnmates to the group if they are terminated for breaking program
rules is based upon: (1) inmate must wait for at least thirty days before reapplying for readmission: (2) inmate must be recommended for re-admission by Department staff; and
(3) re-appUcation must be accepted by Provider's counselors and participants of the
group.
Treatment seSSions shaH provide offenders with the first four Journals of the RDAP
curriculum:

Building a desire and motivation to change
BUilding the knowledge base to change
Self-disclosure and receiving feedback: pathways to seif-awareness and change
Preventing relapse and recidivism: identifying high-risk situations
How do people change: understanding the process of self-improvement and
change
Developing a commitment to change
In-depth assessment: looking at the areas of need and change

In the process of presenting material in these content areas, counselors are expected to
use lecture, group activities. open discussion. role-play. and written assignments. Level
II groups will be structured to insure that the materials are adequately covered.
reviewed, and the participant has sufficient opportunity to practice effective behaviors
and receive feedback.
The structured group treatment program shall provide weekly group counseling sessions
that will emphasize inmates' personal recovery. responsibility and awareness. Group
sessions are intended to help inmates internalize and apply lessons from the skilibuilding groups. Group counseling sessions use the interaction of group participants in
order to affect the desired changes necessary to achieve individual treatment plan
objectives. Through participation in treatment groups, inmates learn from each other
and receive the strength of group support. Through the process of giving and receiving
feedback in-group sessions. inmates become more aware of their feelings and selfdeceptions and begin to accept ownership and responsibility fer the consequences of
their behaviors and lives in general. (Approximately 64 hours)
Althcugh the program consists mostly of structured group sessions. ProVider's
counselors shall also be available to previde indlviduar sessions as needed for the
purpose of evaluation/treatment planning, individual cn' in"en

offender's treatment plan, I.e., recovery, behavior modification and problem solving, and
shaH be designed to ass(st the inmate with the reintegrat~on process necessary for
successful transition to community living,
0, Continuing Care
Providers shaH develop a continuing care component for offenders that successfully
complete primary treatment, including those discharged from other levels of treatment
(Le" Level-III), ContinUing Care shall be provided for the purpose of reinforcing and
maintaining recovery from the time of completion of treatment to the time when the
offender transfers to either parole status or to a community level facility, (It is well
documented in the corrections treatment research, and has been observed in our own
population, that inmates who complete treatment, and who return to the general
population without any continUing support, lose the effects of treatment, and regress
back to crim ina! attitudes and behaviors,)
The continuing care component of treatment must encompass the aspects of relapse
prevention, criminal conduct behaviors and attitudes, and prevention of recidivism.
Additionaliy, other topics related to recovery should be added to the repertoire of
curriculum topics, such as recovery support systems, job skill development,
assertiveness vs, aggression, transportation issues, etc, It should also be noted that the
offender must comply with all recommendations that are on his discharge summary from
his primary treatment An offender's length of stay in the continuing care program is
dependent upon his personal ability and demonstration of maintaining responsible
The continUing care
behavior and the counselors' observations and discretion,
component may also include process group and individual counseling,
The continuing care component shall be conducted once a week for one and one- half
(1 Y2) hours, The group size shall be no larger than twenty (20) offenders participating in
the group, Should there be more than 20 candidates per facility, the prOVider may
conduct more than one group at a time to insure all offenders receive the continuing care
program, The continuing care component shall be no less than ten (10) weeks and no
more than thirty (30) weeks
Proposai must include the following for the continuing care component available to all
clients who have completed either Level - II or Level III:
Provider must provide a detailed description of the proposed continuing care program
Provider will provide the process by which they would maintain the s8Nices for an
offender until she [$ paroled, or terminated from incarceration.

E Booster Sessions for Completed Level-li Participants
Booster sessions shaH be available to clients to return to treatment that have been
completed and then later have misconduct or behavioral problems that warrants a
redress of treatment for success of recovery, These sessions woufd be extremely

Active use and abuse of
substances would warrant are-evaluation cf the offender with a high probability of being

SUBSTANCE ABUSE TREATMENT
(FORMERLY LEVEL III)

:SbKV!IG!::S

Residential Substance Abuse Services in the Department of Public Safety is an intensive
long-term residential treatment program lasting 9-15 months utilizing the therapeutic community
(TCl model of treatment. It is for substance abusing criminal offenders and addresses both
substance abuse and criminogenic needs. The key elements of the TC model utilized by the
Hawaii Department of Public Safety are described below.
Communities are formed when individuals and family groups join for mutual advantage: to
protect against common enemies, and to organize to reach common goals. In drug treatment
therapeutic communities, the common enemy is substance abuse and the criminal lifestyle.
'The social organization of the Te, its structure, and it systems essentially constitute an
environment for engineering social learning." George De Leon
"Where community exists, it confers upon its member identity, a sense of belonging, and a
measure of security ... ,Ll, community has power to motivate its members to exceptional
performance. It can set standards of expectation for the individual and provide the climate in
which great things happen." John W. Gardner

Much of the following TC key elements are credited to Corrections Research Institute,
Community Building Training Manual.
Key elements of a therapeutic community:
Values - values form the guiding principles for the community. They define what is good and
what is not. Rules and all activities in the community should reflect the values and principles of
the community.
Rules - There are generally three sets of rules that a substance abuse therapeutic community
in a correctional environment observe. They are:
Cardinal Rules
Protect the safety and the viability of the community. Violation of cardinal rules result in the most
severe consequences, up to and including expulsion from the community.
Major Rules
Define the relationship between the individual members and the community, and identify
behaviors to be corrected. Violations of major rules are expected and provide the opportunity for
corrective measures. Violations of major rules requires bringing awareness to the violator and
often require the assignment of learning experiences such as thinking reports and/or activities
that support new learning. Major rules provide the structure that disallows previous maladaptive
behaviors and directs members towards new "right living" behaviors valued by the community.
Therefore it is necessary to understand that major rule violations are not only expected in a
therapeutic community, but they are necessary as a vehicle for corrective aelion to take place. If
rules are not being violated and/or members are not being made aware, then change is most
likely not taking place among community members. When this situation arises in a TC, it is the
responsibility of staff to modify the rules to ensure that members are brought to awareness and
that pro-social learning experiences car. replace faulty learning patterns.
APPENDIX C

Attachment 1

C-1

House Rules
Are the norms for a particular community. Consequences for violation of house rules should
include verbal and written awareness for repeated violations. House rules define the etiquette
and personality of a community.
The rules of the TC in a correctional setting should be in alignment with institutional rules.
Consequences - Communities develop a system of consequences that enforce the rules of the
community. Consequences operate as punishments and rewards. Punishments are a deterrent
to future maladaptive behaviors (as identified by rule infractions). Rewards are both tangible and
intangible consequences intended to promote the likelihood that the desirable behaviors will be
repeated. A corrective learning experience most often includes both punishment and
replacement with positive behaviors that are promoted by the community.
In TC, almost all consequences are intended and designed to be corrective learning
experiences, since the purpose of the TC is to change dysfunctional behavior through increased
awareness and motivation to change.
Learning experiences are the responsibility of the staff in the TC to determine, based upon a
concept of "rational authority." Rational authority refers to leaders practicing self-reflection and
checks and balances. This ensures that decisions by staff are guided by the community values.
Privileges and sanctions should either be:
1. Therapeutic for the individual, and/or
2. Promote the health of the community.
Learning experiences should be designed by community rational authority to:
•
•
•
•

Compel residents to be aware of and attend to their behaviors
Reflect on their motivation and the underlying thinking that prompted the behavior
Connect consequences to behavior; or
Search for alternate behaviors when confronting similar situations, I.e., change.

Structure - Structure provides the community with organization that facilitates the
aforementioned principles to operate effectively. The structure board defines the job hierarchy
within the community. Job categories and job functions are determined by what is required to
operate the community. Job functions also promote change in the individual. There may be
some job functions that may not be needed to operate the community but are essential because
they promote change. The hierarchical design of the TC structure acknowledges those who
have become leaders in the community and provides motivation for new members to work
towards the community values. In the TC, self-esteem is then equated with the ability to accept
responsibility and becoming a "role model" in the community. TC's attach increasingly desirable
privileges as tangible rewards to each higher level of the structure bcard hierarchy.
Staff can use movement within the TC structure as a powerful vehicle for social engineering.
Upward mobility should be recognized as role modeling the values of the community. Demotion
should be used when appropriate as the ccnsequence for regression. lateral movement can be
used to expand a member's experience and to increase self-esteem.

APPENDIX C

Attachment 1

C-2

Privileges and Sanctions - Privileges reinforce behaviors that are consistent with the
therapeutic community values and principles. This exemplifies the idea that privileges should be
associated with efforts required to earn them, The amount of effort required to earn a privilege
determines the worth of the privilege, The worth of the privilege is also assessed by the
possibility of losing it Privileges and associated levels of responsibility are earned and
determined through a number of areas of assessment:
1, Behavior change
2, Attitude change

3, Acceptance of responsibility, and clinical progress,
Leadership - The primary goal of a TC Is to facilitate the movement of an Individual from a
dysfunctional lifestyle to "right living", This image of right living is embodied in the leadership in
the community who gain this status through becoming role models, Because peers who have
advanced in the community structure have succeeded in traversing the same obstacles that
newer members are facing, they are credible role models,

This is a description of the key elements of the Te model of substance abuse treatment in
Hawaii Department of Public Safety. For maximum success, the participant should complete the
TC program while incarcerated and then go on to reentry services that help link him or her in the
community while in work furlough status,
