- Its explicit framework lets clients know exactly what is expected of them.
- It reinforces positive behavior change.
- It provides a mechanism for corrective feedback and uses client resistance as a teaching tool.
- It uses hourly and daily scheduling to help clients eliminate unstructured time--a key contributor to relapse.
- It involves the client's family in an active role in the treatment process, leading to a greater understanding and ability to participate in the new life of recovery.
- It introduces and encourages self-help/support group participation.
- It uses urinalysis to monitor drug use and take the issue of use "off the table".
