摘要:

The socio-economic factors in the Black community are discussed with emphasis on stress as a co-factor. Examples are given and studies quoted demonstrating the importance of these factors not only in the genesis of addiction but also in that of other physical and mental diseases among Blacks. Since most Blacks living under the same disadvantaged conditions do not become alcoholic or drug addicted, there is a delineation of the differences between those who do and those who do not. Polydrug abuse is classified and examples are given under each category. A section is included on the diagnosis and treatment of polydrug abuse with special references to Blacks where applicable. An overview of treatment of the Black multiply addicted alcoholic is given.

摘要:

Contemporary fiction, especially novels, is suggested as an adjunct to therapy for Black children and adolescents who abuse or are addicted to alcohol and for those growing up with alcoholic parents. Other forms of literature are assessed for their value with Black children and adolescents in therapy. Bibliotherapy is introduced as having value in working with alcoholism problems among children and teenagers. An annotated bibliography of useful novels is included.

摘要:

The recent proliferation of self-help groups for adult children of alcoholics reveals no significant participation of Black women. Recognizing that alcoholism is a major cause of social problems in the Black community, and that many Black children have been affected by parental alcoholism, a race- and gender-specific group known as Black Women of Alcoholic Parents (B-WAP) was organized. The group was then studied to ascertain its usefulness as a self-help group. The relevance of such a race- and gender-specific group for the Black women is demonstrated. A description is given of the method used to organize the group, the quality of participation and the benefits derived from group membership, as well as an identification of areas that worked against the continued involvement of certain members. Recommendations for replicating a B-WAP group, given by the members, are discussed.
