positive coping skills that would replace their
prior negative coping skill of substance abuse. A

in the therapeutic community and women who were on
the waiting list for treatment. Data from this
study suggests that women involved in the
therapeutic community were able to improve their
problem solving and seeking social support skills,
while many still struggled with avoidance
techniques.
