Abstract
ABSTRACT Recent developments in the provision of the substance abuse treatment for adolescents has included a focus on age appropriate treatment with consideration for adolescents' relatively low level of motivation for treatment and high incidence of co-occurring substance use and mental health problems. This study examines 3- and 6-month substance use and mental health outcomes for youth (n = 36) participating in The Seven Challenges Program. Results indicate significant reductions in both substance use and mental-health-related measures at 3 months with all measures except substance abuse frequency continuing to improve at the most distal 6-month assessment. The Seven Challenges treatment model is presented along with a discussion of the findings.
