1The following changes in data collection methods are reflected in the table: Before 1992, no attempt was made to adjust for survey nonresponse. Beginning in 1992, survey nonrespondents were contacted to obtain a minimum data set. This is reflected in larger and more consistent numbers of clients. Also, in 1997 only, facilities providing programs for DUI/DWI offenders did not complete the full survey, and did not provide client counts. 2Totals include persons of unknown age. 3Preliminary data. Sources: Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, Office of Applied Studies, National Drug and Alcoholism Treatment Unit Survey (NDATUS) (1987–1993); Uniform Facility Data Set Survey (UFDS) (1995–1998); National Survey of Substance Abuse Treatment Services (N-SSATS) (2000, 2002).
