Chapter two focuses on the foundations of treatment. Topics include the basics of effective treatment, an ethnical approach to treatment, and partnerships and advocacy. Chapter three explains how to put treatment concepts into practice. Chapter four deals with assessing needs and resources and making decisions about what to do.
