"Right on target..." "This reference manual really hit home. The author has covered all are as of AA, NA, and... Twelve Step programs for family members. [Partners in Change is] an excellent tool to aid officers in counseling the chemically dependent offenderone of the best [books] I have read on what is actually occurring in communitybased corrections. I believe state credentialing boards should recommend this book to every professional seeking certification. [It's] a must for all persons in the field of corrections, law enforcement, treatment providers, and social services." James E. Dare Director of Adult Probation Montgomery County, Ohio, Court of Common Pleas
"This is very good work..." "The author has addressed almost every issue imaginable on this subject. The book is very practical; it is very much on target.... I found the glossary of program vernacular to be extremely helpful. Also helpful to the correctional employee will be the section 'Working with Resistance.' This book does an excellent job of providing a historical overview of Alcoholics Anonymous." Robert Harrison Correctional Manager III Former Parole Services Administrator for the State of Kansas
"The text has an easy, conversational tone, and an element of passion comes through every page. The work's main message is that the task of facilitating offender recovery is not futile. We have to value what we are 'selling,' and treat each offender as an individual. Understanding and knowledge of addiction and the Twelve Step recovery process are key." Dennis Avery Manager of Adult Field Services Hennepin County, Minnesota, Community Corrections
