Women who use crack are at risk for HIV in addition to problems surrounding their drug use. In this study, 149 crack using women participated in a case management intervention. The sample was predominantly African-American and Hispanic and averaged 42 years old. At follow-up, significant improvements were reported on drug and alcohol use, mental and emotional health, and employment. The results indicate that case management services are useful to help crack-using women improve their lives.
