About the
Treatment Research Institute
TRI is dedicated to science-driven reform of policy and treatment in substance
use. TRI investigators are predominantly solutions oriented in their approach
to the multi-faceted, real-world issues associated with drug/alcohol use
or abuse. More about TRI and
our research projects can be found elsewhere on this site.
About the
Center on the Continuum of Care
TRI investigators who are participating in the Center on the Continuum
of Care, under the direction of John Cacciola, Ph.D., are developing and
evaluating practical, empirically suggested care options with corresponding
tracking systems for individuals at all points in the severity continuum
and at all points in the recovery process. The Center’s projects
span the full continuum of care, from work designed to achieve earlier
engagement of compromised but un-treated individuals, to extended low-level
monitoring for patients who have received more intensive, initial treatment.
