For most illicit drug users, the biggest criminological concern is acquisitive offending to fund the habit, whereas with alcohol it is violence and disorder. There is clearly a strong need in correctional services for treatment for both drug and alcohol use. What works in substance misuse treatments for offenders?\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>Findings<\/jats:bold>\n                    \u2002This review shows that the evidence is strongest for the effectiveness of therapeutic communities and cognitive\u2010behavioural therapies. Purely behavioural therapies are ineffective, as are boot camps and group counselling. Maintenance prescription for offenders addicted to heroin, especially if combined with psychological treatment, shows promise. Arrest\u2010referral schemes, court\u2010mandated drug rehabilitation and drug courts can be effective, but improvements in multi\u2010agency working are also necessary.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>Conclusions<\/jats:bold>\n                    \u2002There is evidence that treatment for substance abuse in correctional settings can work to reduce reoffending, and so it is worth focusing on how the effectiveness of these interventions may be improved. Improving completion rates, developing programmes aimed at specific drug\u2010 and alcohol\u2010related offences, introducing stepped care and designing programmes to meet the needs of specific groups of offenders are all considered.
