Substance Abusing Latinos

"Information about the substance abuse behaviors among Latino populations has been limited. Substance Abusing Latinos: Current Research on Epidemiology, Prevention, and Treatment fills this void by presenting the latest research on the epidemic of substance abuse now afflicting the Latino community. Ethnic differences are reviewed, including specific studies covering gang members, low-income urban women, risky behaviors, language preference indicators of acculturation, and culturally competent intervention strategies. The research is then used as a foundation to focus on the latest advances of substance abuse prevention and treatment programs. Each chapter is extensively referenced to reinforce research."--Jacket.
