This project assesses the effects of adolescent treatment on key outcomes observed during young adulthood, the critical developmental period during which many people discontinue a variety of problem behaviors, while others establish lifelong patterns of drug use, crime and poor economic functioning. We will examine treatment effects on drug problems, HIV risk behaviors, health, criminal activity, health service utilization, psychosocial and economic functioning, and developmental transitions.
