Comparing lifetime substance use patterns of men and women offenders / prepared by L. Kelly and S. Farrell MacDonald. : PS82-4/14-44E-PDF

"Men and women offenders have different patterns of substance use. Prevalence, severity, drug most used, polysubstance/polydrug use, and injection drug use all vary by gender. The Correctional Service of Canada (CSC) offers programs of different intensities to both men and women in order to address the diverse levels of treatment need. In addition, CSC ensures that women’s programming is gender specific and trauma informed, incorporating women-centered principles to support them in their reintegration. Understanding the differences in substance use patterns for men and women can further inform program delivery as well as highlight additional areas of intervention that may be beneficial, such as the Opioid Substitution Therapy program or public health interventions"--What it means, p. [1].
