The proposed study will compare three alternative interventions in the emergency department (ED) to promote linkage to substance abuse assessment, referral and treatment entry for those who meet abuse/dependence criteria for stimulants, cannabis, and/or non-injected opioids: (1) a 5-session Strengths-Based Case Management (SBCM) model; (2) a 2-session Brief Motivational Enhancement (BME); or (3) a one-time Brief Informational Feedback (BIF) session. The primary outcome variables for this trial include receiving an assessment and referral and treatment entry.
