Missions of the CTN: A. Conduct studies of behavioral, pharmacological and
integrated behavioral and pharmacological treatment interventions in rigorous, multi-site clinical trials to determine effectiveness across a broad range of community based treatment settings and diversified patient populations.
B. Timely transfer of the research results to clinicians, providers, their patients and the policy makers to improve the quality of drug abuse treatment throughout the country using science as the vehicle.
CTN strategic plan includes the importance of using the CTN as an infrastructure to study best approaches to disseminating treatment innovations.
• Patients (n=423) assigned to MI at intake subsequently completed more counseling sessions (mean=5.02, sd=5.15) than Standard Care patients (mean=4.03, sd=4.21) during 28 days after randomization (p<.05)
• MI patients more likely (84%) to still be enrolled at the program after one month than Standard Care patients (75%) (p<.04)

Supervisory Tools forEnhancing Proficiency
MIA: STEP is…
– A multi-media tool kit for enhancing MI proficiency in clinicians already knowledgeable about MI (“The last thing we need is another MI training manual.” Bill Miller)
– A resource for supervisors to help them become more effective supervisors
– A supervisory model which emphasizes fidelity to the intervention and bringing actual clinical material into supervision

Train-the-Trainer in Use of the Blending Product
• Applicants from CTN Nodes and ATTCs had to first demonstrate MI proficiency using the MITI system.
• 51 applicants + 3 MIA: STEP trainers • 1/3 of the applicants were unable to demonstrate
MI proficiency in the first round • 26 passed from CTN/18 passed from ATTC by
the second round • Trained 42 individuals as MIA: STEP trainers
Training
• 2.5 days in Kansas City – sponsored by the ATTC National Office
• Product overview
• Step-by-step experiential walk-through of MIA: STEP
• Discussion of implementation issues
Roll-outs completed• Prince William County Community Services Board,
Virginia N = 17
• North Carolina Alcohol Drug Abuse Treatment Centers
N = 39
– Included psychiatrists, medical doctors, nurses, recreational therapists, SA counselors, social workers at three sites
• MI training prerequisites• Individual vs. group supervision• Frequency• Setting-specific modifications• Agency support• State support• Curriculum/On-going consultations (CEUs)
• Support to train MIA: STEP
Where do we go from here?• Listserv – Mid-Atlantic ATTC?
• Ongoing technical assistance for trainers, including more practice sessions/co-ratings?
• Quarterly conference calls open to trainers and supervisors?
• Obligations of trainers and $ to support them?
• Annual training of trainers or link training to Blending Conference
• MI Proficiency standards: MITI or MIA: STEP and with what support?
• Establish point person for ATTC (Gallon?) and CTN (Martino?)
• How to monitor effectiveness of strategy?
What is missing?
99% = Investment in Intervention Research to develop solutions
1% = Investment in Implementation Research to make effective use of those solutions (Up from ¼% in 1977)
TSF; Motivational Incentives; Process Improvement Strategies
• Implementation variables: role of fidelity measures; cultural adaptations; Web-based and interactive CD Rom-based training; factors promoting adoption after the end of CTN trials
