This paper presents national estimates of heavy drinking, drug use, and alcohol and drug abuse and/or dependence among recipients of selected welfare programs.
Data from the 1992 National Longitudinal Alcohol Epidemiologic Survey were analyzed.
The percentages of welfare recipients using, abusing, or dependent on alcohol or drugs were relatively small and consistent with the general US population and those not receiving welfare benefits.
Although a minority of welfare recipients have alcohol or drug problems, substance abuse prevention and treatment services are needed among high-risk subgroups.
本文介绍了对特定福利项目受助者中重度饮酒、药物使用以及酒精和药物滥用及/或依赖情况的全国性估计。
对1992年全国酒精流行病学纵向调查的数据进行了分析。
使用、滥用或依赖酒精或药物的福利受助者比例相对较小,与美国普通人群以及未领取福利的人群情况一致。
虽然少数福利受助者存在酒精或药物问题,但高危亚组人群仍需要药物滥用预防和治疗服务。
