Abstract	Three hearings held in Arizona, New Mexico, and South Dakota provide individual statements and panel presentations on problems, programs, and proposals for prevention, identification, treatment, and follow-up care of alcohol and drug abuse among American Indian juveniles. The majority of witnesses are members of Indian tribes in the three states--Apache, Navajo, Papago, Sioux, Ute, and Winnebago tribes among others. Other witnesses include directors and consultants for alcohol/drug abuse prevention and treatment programs and community health programs serving Indians, officers of the Indian Health Service, and superintendents of Indian schools. The 65 witnesses describe problems of alcoholism and drug abuse among children and youth on their reservations and discuss related problems of domestic violence, parental alcoholism, and teenage pregnancy. Witnesses explain existing prevention/treatment programs, discuss inadequacies of funding and political support for alcohol/drug education programs and treatment facilities, and present proposals for improving existing programs and establishing new ones. The appendix contains additional material submitted by 54 tribal governments, communities, schools, health services, prevention/treatment programs, and intertribal organizations. (LFL)
