Identifying Potential Drinking-Driving Recidivists

Abstract

Family resource programs are a set of principles and a compendium of program characteristics that respond to today's urgent need to reorient policies and services for families. Premises underlying program development and the origins from which program concepts are defined are discussed, as are applications of family resource principles and programs at the state level, in child-focused programs, and in conjunction with medical and mental health services. Current challenges faced by program developers and policymakers are presented, with a perpective that those issues will be pivotal in shaping the future of both the family resource movement and the field of human services at large.
