ThroughtheLooking GlassOver the last few months, a group of Board members alongwith some NAATP members met to discuss concerns aboutissues including, but not limited to Parity Implementation,the ACA, and the emergence of medication only treatmentphilosophies affecting our industry. We started meetingin Nashville and then moved to Dallas to address theseconcerns and begin executing an action plan. At theexpense of these concerned professionals they hired aconsultant and invited me to participate in a process whichresulted in a “statement of Values” and an action plandesigned to address research/outcomes, communication,ethics and other important industry specific topics.NAATP Nashville Summit Statement of Values· We value the history of significant contributions made bySincerely,12-Step abstinence-based treatment to the sobriety of overtwenty million Americans in recovery.· We value residential treatment’s vital, necessary andessential place in the full continuum of care as a viablechoice for the treatment of the disease of addiction.· We value a comprehensive model of care that addresses themedical, biopsychosocial and spiritual needs of individualsand families impacted by the disease of addiction.In January, the work of the group was presented to the NAATPBoard and we voted to adopt the values statement as NAATP’sand continue the work begun by this group now known asNAATP Nashville Summitt Committee as a Board committee. TheBoard Committee will be chaired by Jim Moore of CumberlandHeights and consists of work groups chaired by variousboard members which will continue to be actively engagedin furthering developing and executing the NAATP Agenda.· We value research-driven, evidence-based treatmentinterventions that integrate the sciences of medicine, therapyand spirituality. (For example, pharmaceutical interventionsincluding medications for reducing craving and withdrawalsymptoms; psychosocial interventions including cognitivebehavioral therapy and motivational interviewing; spiritualinterventions including 12-Step facilitated therapy andmindfulness meditation; behavioral interventions includingnutrition and exercise).We will be hosting another “Town Hall” meeting at this yearsnational conference in May and I encourage anyone who wantsto get involved in the important tasks at hand to join us at thismeeting. Also, over the next few months we will update youwith issues regarding parity implementation and other items viaeblast and encourage all of you to share this information withyour staff, alumni, board and other related interested parties.· We value abstinence from all abusable drugs as an optimalcomponent of wellness and lifelong recovery. Depending onbiopsychosocial and economic factors, there may be personswho might require medication-assisted treatment forextended periods of time and perhaps indefinitely. However,medication alone is never sufficient to maintain long-termrecovery.There are many related efforts under way to get themessage of treatment and recovery and I encourage you tostay involved with efforts such as Americans for Recoveryand other advocacy initiatives to share our stories of hope.· We value outcome data that assesses the efficacy oftreatment interventions.I will be in Washington DC in March and April for meetings withkey partners and visiting Capitol Hill, ONDCP, ASAM, NAPHS,SAAS, Legal Action and others to share our support, struggles,concerns and insight as we continue to move NAATP’s Agendaand be your voice.· We value education and training that promotesunderstanding of a continuum of care that embraces thesevalues.Please join us in the fight to make sure all have the optionfor the quality care we know changes lives, families andcommunities.Michael E.
