This book presents a culturally informed framework for
understanding and treating substance abuse problems. From expert
contributors, chapters cover specific ethnocultural groups in the
United States, including Americans of African, Native American,
Latino, European, Middle Eastern, and Asian descent. Authors
examine how ethnocultural factors may affect a person's attitudes
toward alcohol and other drugs, patterns of substance use, reasons
for seeking treatment, and responsiveness to various interventions.
Themes addressed include the impact of migration and acculturation
issues, spiritual values and traditions, family structures, gender
roles, and experiences of prejudice and discrimination. Featuring a
wealth of illustrative clinical material, the book makes concrete
recommendations for more competent, effective assessment and
intervention. It also guides clinicians toward greater awareness of
the ways their own ethnocultural backgrounds may affect their
interactions with clients.
