Women clients in special women's demonstration drug abuse treatment programs compared with women entering selected co-sex programs.
A study comparing characteristics of women in special women's demonstration drug abuse treatment programs with those in selected co-sex programs. Black and White women in women's programs differ from those entering more traditional programs in their referral sources, types and degree of social and financial support, use of community resources, living arrangements, and patterns of criminal involvement and drug use. The need for women's programs, and treatment, policy, and research implications are discussed.
