Georgia Implements PRIME Solutions® for ASAM Level 1 Drug and Alcohol Treatment
Welcome Georgia PRIME Solutions® Counselors!
The Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities (DBHDD), DUI Intervention Program, announced a partnership with Prevention Research Institute (PRI). PRIME Solutions® will be implemented as a standardized treatment program for the ASAM Level 1 Outpatient Treatment Program, just as Prime For Life®; is used in Georgia DUI Schools.
PRIME Solutions® is an evidence-derived, protocol-driven, standardized treatment program developed by PRI and several leading addiction experts. PRIME Solutions® integrates several research-based strategies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Contingency Management, Persuasion Protocols, Lifestyle Risk Reduction Model, and The Transtheoretical Model to help clients learn and implement skills for change throughout their lives. PRIME Solutions® builds on Prime For Life® and allows counselors and therapists to guide their clients in addressing their high-risk lifestyles, attitudes, and behavioral issues that have the potential to undermine their treatment process.
We are excited and honored to partner with DBHDD in this innovative approach to standardized treatment in Georgia!
