摘要：OBJECTIVES: This study examined trends in funding and use of alcohol and drug abuse treatment at specialty facilities between 1990 and 1994. METHODS: The 1990 and 1994 National Drug and Alcohol Treatment Unit Surveys were used to estimate annual funding and number of clients in treatment. RESULTS: Public funding increased by 5%, whereas private funding decreased by 28% in real terms between 1990 and 1994. The number of publicly and privately funded clients decreased slightly. CONCLUSIONS: The rapid growth in private and public sector substance abuse funding during the 1980s has not continued into the 1990's.
