Edited by Yifrah Kaminer, Youth Substance Abuse and Co-occurring Disorders takes a practical approach to addressing the complex needs of clinicians, researchers, and students in the fields of mental health, public health, and medicine.

This book provides clinicians with both theoretical and practical knowledge on the various approaches to SUDs and co-occurring disorders. It features contributions from prominent investigators in the field, offering a wealth of valuable insights and information. Key topics include:
