The primary audience for this TIP is administrators of outpatient substance abuse treatment programs. A few words about this audience are in order. Whereas TIP 8 addressed intensive outpatient treatment, the current TIP drops the word "intensive" from its title because the consensus panel hopes that this TIP will find an audience beyond administrators of IOT programs. Most of the concepts and guidelines included in this TIP apply to the administration of all substance abuse outpatient treatment (OT) programs. On those rare occasions when information applies only to IOT programs, the authors have been sure to make this clear. Although the term "administrator" is used most often to describe the audience for this book, the terms "executive" and "director" appear as well and are used interchangeably with administrator. These overlapping terms emphasize the varied roles and responsibilities that administrators assume.
