[Tribal-drug-courts] [External] Fw: Dilute UAs

[Bear, Sean A]

Meghan,
Diluted UA's are considered trying to cover the use up, so many times they are tested again.  Yet they must be monitored so they are not still diluting and making sure to wait awhile till the testing is not diluted.
Some courts and probation officers may count it as a dirty UA if the participant will not wait for another sample.  Not taking a UA may also be considered a Dirty UA.

What are the consequences your courts give for dilute testing?

All, Here is a some information, although I have not found hand-outs on this subject.  I'd guess that would be great to have, but I'm sure an informational sheet could be handed out on this topic from one the sites here.
One is a manual from SAMHSA and the other is an informational site.
I hope this helps.

Subject: Dilute UAs

Hello,

Does anyone have a handout about dilute UAs that you give to participants that you would be willing to share?  My team struggles with explaining dilutes to our participants.  I would love to have a written handout that could be provided to participants so they understand what they are and why they are important to sobriety.  I can write something up, but most of you have been at this longer than me and have more experience and knowledge than I do.

Thank you!
