A number of people deserve recognition for their tireless and dedicated work on this document. The publication was originally conceived and written by the National Addiction Technology Transfer Center (ATTC) Curriculum Committee. The Committee, one of six national committees designed to serve the ATTC Network, comprises representatives from several ATTC Regional Centers and the ATTC National Office. This group was responsible for the original 1998 publication and for the 2000 draft on which this updated edition is based (see page v). A second Committee convened in 2005 to update and finalize the current document (see page vi). Karl D. White, Ed.D., and Catherine D. Nugent, M.S., served as the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT) ATTC Project Officers. Christina Currier served as the CSAT Government Project Officer. This publication was produced by JBS International, Inc. (JBS), under the Knowledge Application Program (KAP) contract number 270-04-7049.
