ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
The development of this manual was supported, in part, by research grants for the Collaborative Cocaine Treatment Study (CCTS) and for the Drug Dependence Behavioral Treatment Research Center from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA). This manual was written by Drs. Delinda E. Mercer and George E. Woody under contracts with NIDA. Debra Grossman, the NIDA project officer, offered valuable guidance and comments throughout the preparation of this manual.
The material presented in this manual is the result of extensive research and clinical experience under the direction of Dr. Woody and colleagues at the University of Pennsylvania (Penn) and Veterans Affairs (VA) Medical Center. The University of Pennsylvania Center for Psychotherapy Research and the Penn-VA Center for Studies of Addiction were both instrumental in the development of this manual and in the Collaborative Cocaine Treatment Study for which this manual was originally prepared. This drug counseling model is based on the clinical work of Nina Chychula, Ph.D., John McGinnis, M.S.W., and Debra Wiles, M.S.W., in the Addiction Recovery Unit of the Veterans Affairs Medical Center under the direction of Iradj Maany, M.D. The work of many others was also quite valuable and is acknowledged in the relevant portions of this manual.

Foreword
More than 20 years of research has shown that addiction is clearly treatable. Addiction treatment has been effective in reducing drug use and HIV infection, diminishing the health and social costs that result from addiction, and decreasing criminal behavior. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), which supports more than 85 percent of the world's research on drug abuse and addiction, has found that behavioral approaches can be very effective in treating cocaine addiction.
To ensure that treatment providers apply the most current scientifically supported approaches to their patients, NIDA has supported the development of the "Therapy Manuals for Drug Addiction" series. This series reflects NIDA's commitment to rapidly applying basic findings in real-life settings. The manuals are derived from those used efficaciously in NIDA-supported drug abuse treatment studies. They are intended for use by drug abuse treatment practitioners, mental health professionals, and all others concerned with the treatment of drug addiction.
The manuals present clear, helpful information to aid drug treatment practitioners in providing the best possible care that science has to offer. They describe scientifically supported therapies for addiction and give guidance on session content and how to implement specific techniques. Of course, there is no substitute for training and supervision, and these manuals may not be applicable to all types of patients nor compatible with all clinical programs or treatment approaches. These manuals should be viewed as a supplement to, but not a replacement for, careful assessment of each patient, appropriate case formulation, ongoing monitoring of clinical status, and clinical judgment.
The therapies presented in this series exemplify the best of what we currently know about treating drug addiction. As our knowledge evolves, new and improved therapies are certain to emerge. We look forward to continuously bringing you the latest scientific findings through manuals and other science-based publications. We welcome your feedback about the usefulness of this manual series and any ideas you have on how it might be improved.
