This book is dedicated to the prevention, treatment, and recovery
of African Americans with substance use disorders. African
Americans are disproportionately represented in the addictions,
criminal justice, and child welfare systems. It is clear that, when
their culturally specific needs are not met, they are vulnerable to
continuous relapse and the revolving door syndrome. There has been
little written that focuses exclusively on prevention, treatment,
and recovery among African Americans. This book was written to fill
this gap. It is an important contribution to the field of
behavioral health, providing a much-needed treasure trove of
important knowledge from specialists, including physicians,
psychologists, educators, social workers, addictions counselors,
public health specialists, researchers, the clergy, as well as
individuals in recovery. This volume adds significantly to the
knowledge base of practitioners and researchers whose work focuses
on prevention, treatment, and recovery in African American
communities. This book was originally published as a special issue
of Alcoholism Treatment Quarterly.
