This inservice training manual provides counselors and other clinical staff members with scripted modules to use in trainings for Treatment Improvement Protocol (Tip) 41, Substance Abuse Treatment: Group Therapy, published by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's (Samhsa's) Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (Csat). The seven training modules will assist program staff in understanding and implementing the evidence-based practices described in Tip 41. A Tip is the end result of careful consideration of relevant research findings and experiences in clinical settings. For each Tip, a panel of expert clinical researchers, clinical providers, and program administrators (the consensus panel) discusses the issues relevant to the specific Tip. The product of the panel represents the combined and collaborative input of the various viewpoints and provides recommendations for specific best-practice guidelines.
