“Whatever the underlying causes of criminality, the criminal who is a substance abuser will continue criminal behavior unless his thinking changes. The criminal needs both a program of recovery from substance abuse and a way to think and act responsibly. Sober up a horse thief, and you still have a horse thief.

This course provides those strategies in a program that works with the toughest criminals.”
