  Contingency Managment

  If the sample be methamphetamine negative, participant will be positively reinforced and offered incentives. Participants immediately draw the reinforcement slip of paper to receive a prize from a selection kept on-site. Approximately, half of the slips offer written praise (e.g. "great job!"). The other half of slips are then divided between low value (e.g. food gift cards, bus passes), medium value (e.g. prepaid cell phone, clothing gift cards), and a few large value rewards (e.g. iPad, jewelry). Should the sample be positive for methamphetamine, no reinforcement and/or incentive to be provided. Participant will be encouraged to continue to participate in CM program and follow-up on the next CM date.
