Indian Alcoholism on ReservationsJackson, Cleora E. 01 January 1975 (has links)
The purpose of this practicum is to describe the destructive use of alcohol among Southeastern Idaho Indians. This practicum is based on John and Irma Honigmann's (1) theory of· "loss of stake. " It is John and Irma Honigmann' s contention that whatever may be the social functions of drinking, and whatever the personal reasons, having a stake in society tends to induce people to conform to the norms of society with regard to drinking behavior. The three case histories in this practicum will illustrate more of what is meant by the theory of stake in society.

Student Perceptions of the Chemawa Alcohol Education CenterColley, Carol 01 January 1973 (has links)
This paper was a study of the student perceptions of the Chemawa Alcohol Education Center at Chemawa Indian School including a review of the literature on adolescent drinking, Indian youth in particular. Students who entered the CAEC building during the week of November 14-21, 1972, were individually interviewed to determine the demographic data on the student population, patterns of participation, and student ideas about the CAEC program. It was discovered that students interviewed prefer this year's program over last year's, that students brought in for drinking violations were more involved in the counseling aspects of the program, and that the student group interviewed did indeed have need for a special kind of alcohol education center. The findings were inconclusive that students had ideas for significant change in the program, that the outreach of the CAEC counselors was the most important means of advertising for the program, and that there was a difference in program use by the Northwest and Alaskan students at Chemawa.

Culturally Tailoring a Substance Use Intervention Among Southeastern Urban American Indian and Alaska Native YouthUnknown Date (has links)
In the United States, post European-colonial influence and exposure to
substances such as alcohol historically mark the beginning of substance use exposure
and involvement among all American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) people.
Research findings indicate there are strong interrelationships between the origin and
prevalence of substance use and U.S.-European colonization, historical trauma, forced
assimilation, cultural losses, and relocation among urban AI/AN people (Burt, 1986;
Clinton, Chadwick, & Bahr, 1975; Yuan et al., 2010). In an historical sense, the
unsuccessful attempts of relocating AI/AN people to urban areas place the future
generations of urban AI/AN youth at risk for substance use, health conditions, and
health disparities. Nationally, incident rates of substance use among urban AI/AN
populations ages 12 and over is rising steadily, two to three folds higher than other
ethnicities in urban areas within states such as Florida. The overall objective of this study is to culturally tailor the evidence-based Lowe (2013) Cherokee Talking Circle
Intervention for substance use prevention among Cherokee adolescents to that of an
Urban Taking Circle Intervention for use among urban AI/AN adolescents in Florida.
Therefore, the feasibility of culturally tailoring this substance use intervention among a
southeastern urban AI/AN youth was examined and presented within this dissertation. / Includes bibliography. / Dissertation (Ph.D.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2016. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection

Trauma-Informed Research and Planning: Understanding Government and Urban Native Community Partnerships to Addressing Substance-Exposed Pregnancies in Portland, ORMercier, Amanda 17 June 2014 (has links)
In 2011, representatives from the Multnomah County Health Departments and several Native-serving organizations came together to address substance-exposed pregnancies among urban Native Americans in Portland, Oregon. From these partnerships, the Future Generations Collaborative was formed representing a significant shift toward community-led maternal child health research and planning. Additionally, the Future Generations Collaborative adopted a historical trauma-informed community based participatory research and planning process. This is particularly significant considering government agencies' role in colonization within Native communities. The purpose of this case study is to explore partnerships between government agencies and the Portland Native community within the Future Generations Collaborative. Given the profound influence of historical trauma in Native communities, this paper addresses how the partnerships between government agencies and the Portland Native community pose distinct opportunities, challenges, and implications.
Drawing from FGC members' lived experiences and an interdisciplinary body of research, I develop a theoretical model for explaining the government's role in creating and sustaining historical trauma within Native communities. This analysis provides critical context for examining the impact of historical trauma on the relationships between government agencies and the Portland Native community within the FGC. By entering methodological discussions of Native-specific community-based participatory research, this study also addresses how the use of a trauma-informed research and planning model affects the relationships between government agencies and the Portland Native community within the FGC.
