Contingency Management: Turning Rewards into Recovery Tools
“The challenge is that it really tends to work more in closed environments. But if it's a closed environment, just like you see sometimes in jail, where everything has value, like Jujubes have value, coffee has value. Sometimes people clap and cheer when you've been sober for a little while.”

In this episode of 'Captain Hooked: The Addiction Project', addiction psychiatrist Dr. Wiplove Lamba and addictions case manager Jean-Paul Michael dive into the concept of Contingency Management (CM).
