THE LINEAGE

As many of our readers know, we started off as the Ohio SAMI CCOE back in December 2000 to provide technical assistance for Integrated Dual Disorder Treatment (IDDT). Since then, we’ve added four more initiatives (see "home" page). We’ve been producing a printed newsletter, SAMI Matters, since the spring of 2001. It was our flagship publication for seven years. The Fall 2008 issue was our last. Why? Simply put, we had to innovate. We had to find a new way to communicate more efficiently about everything we do and have to offer.

Below is a list of all past issues of SAMI Matters. It also includes an issue of Employment Matters and Work Is Recovery, which were publications of our evidence-based Supported Employment (SE) initiative.
