Through interactive meetings, teens look at their drug use, consider the consequences of their use and make a decision about continued use.
Insight uses the Substance Abuse Subtle Screening Inventory (SASSI) assessment, a brief and easily administered psychological screening measure that helps identify individuals who have a high probability of having a substance use disorder. SASSI aids in the referral process by helping determine whether individuals need more intensive services.
