1 CUA THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA National Catholic School of Social Service Washington, DC Fax SSS 562 Drug Abuse: Current Policy Issues, Their Impact on Clients, and the National Debate Spring 2013 (1 credit) Richard A. Millstein, J. D. This course outline is the property of NCSSS and the instructor and may be distributed with written permission. I. COURSE PURPOSE This course provides essential knowledge and engages students in critical thinking about drug abuse and dependence and related public policies and their impact on individuals, families, and communities. It introduces students to the impact on clients and their families, especially ethnic minority populations, of disparate intent and impact of law, regulation, policy, and practice. Students will be introduced to the pervasive consequences of drug abuse and addiction upon the individual user attendant to associated problem behaviors, social problems, medical conditions, and even drug abuse history. Students will examine the consequences of policies that distinguish illegal drug abuse from abuse of tobacco and alcohol in terms of how the implementation of these policies affects their well-being and that of their family. Implications for accessing services for clients and advocating on their behalf will be addressed. This course is one of a series of three one-credit companion courses in drug abuse, each of which can be taken independently, with no prerequisite. Each has a different focus. The focus of this course is current policy issues, their effect on clients, and the national debate; the focus of SSS 560 is the conflict between individual and societal rights; and the focus of SSS 561 is treatment, its effectiveness, policy and politics. Page 1
2 II. EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES A. To introduce students to the ideology underlying drug abuse and dependence and related policies to understand why society treats drug abuse and dependence differently from other public health problems, including addictions to other substances, and the impact of this distinction on the poor, the underserved, and on minority populations. B. To make students aware of the effect of science versus ideology as policy drivers in issues such as health insurance parity for substance abuse and to provide the knowledge and skills necessary to advocate that client with drug abuse problems should be treated comparably to individuals with other medical conditions, including in terms of reimbursement policies. C. To have essential knowledge about the distinction between drug abuse history, status and behavior, addiction as a disability, and to understand the implications of a drug abuse history on eligibility for or exclusion from student loan programs, SSI and other disability benefits, and public housing. D. To understand the bilateral interrelationship between trauma and drug abuse behaviors, and what role social workers can play. E. To understand the relationship between service-related injuries, mental health issues, and substance abuse. F. To familiarize clinical concentrators on content on and analysis of policies to understand the full range of clinical issues faced by clients and their families and the need for advocacy on their behalf.
