Abstract
Experience has demonstrated that a probation office setting is potentially equipped to serve an important and productive function in the redirection of the alcoholic. Casework skills on a broad level are specifically indicated, but most important is attitude. It is well, insofar as possible, not to be manipulative. The emotional patterns and backgrounds of probationers are not so parallel that pat solutions are readily applicable. Acceptance of the individual, helping him to accept himself and others, and helping him to recognize his problems and overcome them or learn to live with them[long dash]all these, if achieved by self-propulsion, and only then, are the essential ingredients of rehabilitation.
