Sarah H. Church, Ph.D., executive director of the Division of Substance Abuse at Montefiore Medical Center and an assistant professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, is starting a new venture: a treatment program based on harm‐reduction techniques embodied in the work of Robert Meyers, who developed Community Reinforcement and Family Training (CRAFT). Called Elevate360, the program opened this fall and is aimed at helping people in New York City who want outpatient treatment for addiction (see ADAW , Oct. 22).
