The TEDS is an annual compilation of data on the demographic characteristics and substance abuse problems of those admitted for substance abuse treatment. This information comes primarily from treatment facilities that receive some public funding. This report indicates that male admissions with co-occurring problems were more likely to report alcohol as the primary substance of abuse compared with male admissions having only a substance abuse problem (48 percent compared with 43 percent). Also, male admissions with co-occurring problems were more likely to be White (69 percent compared with 57 percent). Only 28 percent of male admissions with co-occurring problems were referred to treatment via the criminal justice system, compared to 45 percent male admissions with only a substance abuse problem. Male admissions with co-occurring problems were also more likely to report not being in the labor force (55 percent compared to 34 percent); and they were less likely to report either full-time employment (18 percent compared to 33 percent) or unemployment (22 percent compared to 27 percent); they were equally likely to report part-time employment. The average age of first substance use for the primary substance of abuse was younger for male admissions with co-occurring problems (age 17). 3 figures and 5 notes
