Adolescent Community Reinforcement Approach (A-CRA) is an evidence-based behavioral intervention that seeks to reduce environmental factors that promote substance use and build resilience with pro-social behaviors. Clinicians assume a flexible approach to reduce adolescent substance use by choosing from a menu of 19 different A-CRA procedures that address areas such as problem-solving skills, communication skills, and relapse prevention.    

Goals of A-CRA:

Decrease substance use
Improve life satisfaction
Improve positive relations with family and peers
Increase participation in non-using pro-social activities


Continuing education credit hours provided for eligible counselors, substance use counselors, social workers, and psychologists.
