{"title":"Harm reduction and substance use treatments in Germany: a conversation with Benjamin Löhner","authors":"S. Rose","doi":"10.1080/1533256X.2022.2115709","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/1533256X.2022.2115709","url":null,"abstract":"Alcohol use is widespread in Germany, with its long cultural history of beer gardens, Oktoberfests, local celebrations and a strong beer brewing economic sector. In addition to alcohol use, alcohol use disorders and other substance use disorders are on the rise among people of all ages, but especially among youth. While a wide variety of substances are used in Germany, alcohol remains the primary drug of choice. It is estimated that over two million adults over the age of 18 meet the DSM IV criteria for ‘alcohol dependence,’ and of this group approximately 10% are under the age of 18 (Mann et al., 2017). Another two million drink in problematic ways, and over 74,000 die from alcohol related causes every year. However, while there are many people who use both illegal substances and legal substances in problematic ways, Germany has not experienced the same growth in opioid use as other countries or as in the United States (Kraus et al., 2019). While German based pharmaceutical companies have been trailblazers in developing morphine, heroin, methadone, and oxycontin (https://www.narconon.org/druginformation/germany-drug-addiction-treatment.html), the country has been able to avoid the epidemic of misuse of these substances in the general population. Germany has also been a leader in harm reduction methods in Europe, and a strong health care system has focused on providing substance use treatment and prevention services. Other broader based public health research has focused on public health solutions to problem substance use for both adults and youth. In this issue, we speak with Benjamin Löhner, a practitioner and researcher in substance use in Germany. His focus is on both prevention and treatment with youth experiencing substance misuse. Löhner, a social worker, has worked at a counseling center for young drug users and presently conducts trainings and workshops for social workers, teachers, and medical doctors. He is a Lecturer and doctoral candidate at the Evangelische Hochschule and Technische Hochschule in Nuremberg, Germany. His current research investigates the use and the benefits of game elements in counseling young drug users – a principle called gamification.","PeriodicalId":45598,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Work Practice in the Addictions","volume":"22 1","pages":"336 - 343"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-08-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43862813","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These social work values often conflict with the myriad of U.S. policies that impact substance users by creating and reinforcing structural inequalities.

This article provides an overview of Michael Lipsky’s Street-Level Bureaucracies and outlines opportunities to embrace social justice and human rights through micro and macro social work practice with people who use substances.","PeriodicalId":45598,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Work Practice in the Addictions","volume":"23 1","pages":"265 - 272"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49448917","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this study is to examine a possible causal pathway between functional independence, social engagement, loneliness, and drinking among older adults using structural equation modeling. A lower level of functional independence was a significant predictor of higher levels of loneliness and lower levels of social engagement. Additionally, higher feelings of loneliness predicted higher levels of drinking and higher levels of social engagement predicted lower levels of drinking.","PeriodicalId":45598,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Work Practice in the Addictions","volume":"22 1","pages":"233 - 244"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/1533256X.2020.1838858","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46879867","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Rose","doi":"10.1080/1533256X.2022.2079061","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/1533256X.2022.2079061","url":null,"abstract":"Some women experience the trifecta of being pregnant, having a substance use disorder problem, and being incarcerated. Similar to other incarcerated women, pregnant women experience physical and mental health challenges, but these are compounded because they often come into jail with generally poorer health status, limited or no pre-natal care, and chronic poor nutrition (Swavola et al., 2016). While many incarcerated women have histories of trauma and substance use before their incarceration, one study reported that over 60% of incarcerated pregnant women had histories of family violence before age 18, and close to half had used drugs and alcohol during the past year as well as during their pregnancy (Fogel & Belyea, 2001). Some correctional facilities are willing to offer medication assisted treatment (MAT) during a pregnancy but not after the birth of the child (Sufrin et al., 2020), and few jail facilities offer gender responsive services during pregnancy or post-partum services after delivery. The needs of incarcerated pregnant women continue through their incarceration and as they reenter the community upon their release. Recently released pregnant women with substance use problems, need to quickly find prenatal care and plan for delivery, housing, and the initiation or continuation of treatment for substance use and other mental health conditions. Today we talk with Dr. Thomas LeBel, Associate Professor of Criminal Justice and Criminology at the Helen Bader School of Social Welfare at the University of WisconsinMilwaukee, who has focused a significant portion of his research on issues of reentry. In addition, Dr. LeBel and I have conducted a number of different studies in a large Midwestern jail with women, most of whom had substance use issues, some of whom were mothers and some of whom were pregnant.","PeriodicalId":45598,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Work Practice in the Addictions","volume":"22 1","pages":"247 - 254"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45773370","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
