Community Reinforcement Approach + Vouchers

Substance Use Prevention or Treatment Promising

Community Reinforcement Approach + Vouchers (CRA + Vouchers) is designed to treat adults with cocaine use issues through therapy, skills training, and incentives for drug abstinence and treatment retention. CRA + Vouchers has two main components:

 

(1) the CRA component is an intensive psychosocial therapy intended to help patients make lifestyle changes and develop drug-refusal skills and strategies; and,

 

(2) the voucher component provides incentives for remaining in treatment and sustaining cocaine abstinence.

 

In the CRA component, treatment goals are co-developed by the therapist and patient based on patient needs and priorities. Patients can receive therapy and skills training in goal setting, drug avoidance and refusal, time management, problem-solving, vocational counseling, social skills and relationships, relaxation, sleep hygiene, and HIV/AIDS prevention.

 

In the voucher component, points are earned for negative drug test results. Patients earn more points for each consecutive negative test and lose points after a positive test. Patients redeem voucher points for desired items that align with treatment goals and increase prosocial drug-free activities. Items can range from physical items to experiences, including fishing licenses, restaurant gift certificates, camera equipment, and continuing education materials. These items are purchased by staff at the request of the patient.


CRA + Vouchers is rated as a promising practice because at least one study achieved a rating of moderate or high on study design and execution and demonstrated a favorable effect on a target outcome.

Target Population

CRA + Vouchers is designed to treat adults with cocaine use issues. The program may also be implemented with adults with other substance use issues.

Dosage

CRA + Vouchers is typically delivered over 24 weeks. Therapists meet individually with patients for 1-hour sessions. These sessions happen twice per week for the first 12 weeks and once per week for the last 12 weeks. Trained staff administer urine tests 3 times per week for the first 12 weeks and 2 times per week for the last 12 weeks.

Location/Delivery Setting
Recommended Locations/Delivery Settings

CRA + Vouchers is delivered in an outpatient clinical setting.

Location/Delivery Settings Observed in the Research

  • Mental Health Center, Treatment Center, Therapist Office

Education, Certifications and Training

Therapists must have at least a master's degree, have a working knowledge of behavioral principles, and follow clinical guidelines focused on flexibility, empathy, directive but collaborative interactions with patients, and social reinforcement. Staff administering drug tests must have at least a bachelor’s degree and should have received training in the collection and analysis of urine.

It is recommended that therapists receive supervision from a licensed psychologist trained in substance abuse treatment and behavior analysis.

Note: For the effect sizes and implied percentile effects reported in the table, a positive number favors the intervention group and a negative number favors the comparison group. Effect sizes and implied percentile effects were calculated by the Prevention Services Clearinghouse as described in the Handbook of Standards and Procedures, Version 1.0, Section 5.10.4 and may not align with effect sizes reported in individual publications. The Prevention Services Clearinghouse uses information reported in study documents and, when necessary, information provided by authors in response to author queries to assign study ratings and calculate effect sizes and statistical significance (see Section 7.3.2 in the Handbook of Standards and Procedures, Version 1.0). As a result, the effect sizes and statistical significance reported in the table may not align with the estimates as they are reported in study documents.

Only publications with eligible contrasts that met design and execution standards are included in the individual study findings table.

Full citations for the studies shown in the table are available in the "Studies Reviewed" section.

The table below displays locations, the year, and participant demographics for studies that received moderate or high ratings on design and execution and that reported the information. Participant characteristics for studies with more than one intervention versus comparison group pair that received moderate or high ratings are shown separately in the table. Please note, the information presented here uses terminology directly from the study documents, when available. Studies that received moderate or high ratings on design and execution that did not include relevant participant demographic information would not be represented in this table.
