Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine whether a telephone based self-help program will prevent relapse among individuals undergoing standard substance abuse treatment
Detailed Description: Relapse rates in the first few months following substance abuse treatment are as high as 50 in spite of the immediate effectiveness of treatments such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy CBT Continuing use of therapy skills following treatment is associated with maintenance of treatment gains We have programmed a telephone to deliver pre-recorded summaries and rehearsal sessions of skills learned in therapy The system also includes monthly feedback messages from therapists We expect that this ad-lib access to therapy skills would allow patients to generalize skills to their personal post-treatment lives It would also allow individuals in remote or rural areas to obtain access to assistance without travel barriers

Comparisons patients completing group CBT for substance abuse will be randomly assigned to two conditions In one condition patients will have unlimited access to the therapeutic telephone system for 4 months The other condition is standard care ie no formal relapse prevention
