Alcohol Abuse Training Relevant to Minority Populations. Handbook: Native Americans.
Southern Area Alcohol and Education Training Program, Inc., Atlanta, GA.
The intent of this manual is to provide counselors with essential background information about alcohol abuse among American Indians and with a practical, workable model for organizing and structuring a training program. The nature and extent of alcohol abuse among American Indians and the particular pattern of drinking behavior observable among them are discussed. A model program for training persons who will be working with American Indian alcoholics and alcohol abusers is outlined. In addition, a modular outline of a general alcohol education program for use in training alcohol abuse counselors is presented. Included is an alcohol awareness test which can be used for pretraining assessment of the trainers' needs and post training evaluation of the effectiveness of the program. A bibliography of pertinent printed materials and a list of available film and audio-visual aids are provided. (Author/EB)
