Comprehensive Alcohol and Substance use Treatment (CASAT)

CASAT and into work release is “the express route” through the NYS system for “the very lucky very few” who are lucky enough to get put on that ultra-fast track. One problem with it is that it’s so short and over so fast that it sometimes doesn’t make the needed impression on the involved person, they don’t get quite fully straightened out and they end up making a mistake and coming back for another, full-length trip through the system.
