  • Relapse Prevention Counseling for African Americans: A Culturally Specific Model (Rev. Ed.) ($11.00)
    Written by Roland Williams and Terence Gorski, this book adapts the CENAPS Model of Recovery and Relapse to the specific cultural needs of African Americans. African Americans who seek recovery face a number of obstacles that are not experienced by other Americans.
    Disproportionately large numbers of African Americans relapse. Why? What can be done? Relapse is a serious problem for all recovering people, but it is especially severe for African Americans seeking recovery from addiction.
    Roland Williams, a certified Relapse Prevention specialist who is heavily involved in promoting recovery in the African-American community, has joined forces with Terence T. Gorski to initiate an in-depth look at relapse among recovering African Americans and what can be done to prevent it.
    All recovering people have relapse warning signs. For many African Americans, however, these warning signs are woven into a broad fabric of cultural issues that create additional obstacles to staying alcohol and drug free. Softcover. 2007.
  • Relapse Prevention Workbook for African Americans: Hope and Healing for the Black Substance Abuser (Rev. Ed.) ($18.00)
    This workbook is by Roland Williams, with a foreword by Terence T. Gorski. It is designed to assist African Americans seeking recovery from alcoholism and drug addiction.
    It is intended to increase the quality of their recovery and help them avoid relapse due to race-related issues. It will lead the reader through a series of clinical exercises designed to improve insight and help create a more solid recovery experience.
    A list of Relapse Warning Signs for African Americans is reviewed. This is an opportunity for black addicts to reflect on and process some of the deep-rooted issues such as internal racism, culture-related low self-esteem, victimization, entitlement, and distrust that can sabotage attempts at recovery.
    The goal is solutions. The black addict will be able to honestly identify the race and culture-related problems that threaten recovery and then create a solid recovery plan that addresses these issues. Softcover. 2006.

    This pamphlet summarizes the 22 culturally specific Relapse Warning Signs that often lead to relapse in African Americans who attempt to recover from alcoholism and drug addiction. Warning signs are clear, concise, and easy to identify. This list is designed to also be used as a supplement to the Relapse Prevention Counseling Workbook (RPC) and Relapse Prevention Therapy Workbook (RPT), both of which are described above.
