| Abstract;Therapeutic Communities (TC) have played an important role in the recovery from drug dependence around the world since the 1960s. They employ multiple and comprehensive methods which include community meeting, life training, psychoeducation, psychotherapy, medical care, and vocational coordination etc. In Japan, there is not such comprehensive rehabilitation programs for drug dependence. In order to learn the programs of TCs, we attend the programs of Walden house and Asian and American Recovery Services (AARS), which is TC for drug abusers in San Francisco, and interview with staffs and users of these TCs. In this article, we report outlines of the TC programs and discuss differences between TCs in San Francisco and rehabilitation programs in Japan and how to introduce the TC methods into Japan.
