Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • (1) qualify for a DSM-IV diagnosis of cocaine dependence, with cocaine use in the 6 months prior to entrance into the City of Philadelphia Department of Behavioral Health facilities or controlled environment;
  • (2) 18 to 75 years of age;
  • (3) no current psychotic disorder (as assessed with the psychotic screen from the SCID) or evidence of dementia severe enough to prevent participation in outpatient treatment;
  • (4) no acute medical problem requiring immediate inpatient treatment;
  • (5) no current participation in methadone or other modes of Drug and Alcohol treatment, other than an Intensive Outpatient Program;
  • (6) willingness to be randomized and participate in research.
  • (7) Finally, because of study follow-up requirements, subjects will be able to provide the name, verified telephone number, and address of at least two contacts who can provide locating information on the patient during follow-up. We will include patients with dependence on other substances, provided that they are cocaine dependent and meet other inclusion criteria.

Exclusion

  • Current dependence on opiates is an exclusion as those participants may be better served as part of a methadone program rather than a telephone based therapy protocol. Also, if patients are court-ordered to treatment, or otherwise considered prisoners, they will not be included in the study.
