This study aimed to develop and evaluate the effectiveness of an alcohol intervention program for adults on probation with alcohol-related problems. Conducted within the probation system with 115 participants (58 intervention, 57 control), the six-session program significantly reduced alcohol use, related problems and increased motivation to change. As the first alcohol-specific intervention developed within Turkey's probation system, the study highlights the need for tailored approaches in criminal justice settings and offers a practical model for future programs.
