URICA! A Way to Customize Care 

11-20-2018 10:27

Centerstone Research Institute is conducting a longitudinal, outcome evaluation of a reentry and recovery program for ex-offenders who are returning to their communities and who also have a substance use disorder (SUD) diagnosis. The program is implementing two Evidence Based Practices (EBPs): Living in Balance (LIB) and Moral Reconation Therapy (MRT). As part of the program enrollment and follow-up process, the URICA (University of Rhode Island Change Assessment) is being administered to each participant. The URICA was developed to measure a participant’s readiness for change and can be an indicator for attrition rates and a potential predictor of drug abstinence and other treatment outcomes. In this evaluation, we are looking at the URICA scores at enrollment and using them to inform treatment staff and provide care suggestions. By using measurement-based care, our evaluation team is hoping to see decreased recidivism rates, increased retention, high class attendance and completion rates, as well as increased stability and decreased substance use for our clients.
