Drug and Alcohol Policies That Will Save Lives-
"Community
leaders across the country are grappling with problems caused
by drug and alcohol use. Everyone wants to know: What really
works? What policies are the most effective in preventing and
treating these problems? How can we save lives? These questions
are especially important for elected officials. But too many
politicians call for policies that won't work, and too few even
know that proven strategies exist. Every public official ought
to know there are better ways to prevent alcohol and drug problems
than punishing people who have a disease. Ten Drug and Alcohol
Policies That Will Save Lives draws on strong scientific
research to make a concise but persuasive case for policy measures
that are proven to have a positive effect." [summary from
publisher] Join Together, 2005, 4pp.

- Adults
with Co-Occurring Serious Mental Illness and a Substance Use Disorder:
NSDUH Report
-
SAMHSA's
2002 National Survey on Drug Use and Health found that 17.5
million adults aged 18 or older (8%) were estimated to have
a serious mental illness in the past year. About 4 million of
the adults with a serious mental illness in 2002 also were dependent
on or abused alcohol or an illicit drug; that is, they had a
co-occurring substance abuse and mental disorder. More than
half of the adults with co-occurring serious mental illness
and a substance use disorder received neither specialty substance
use treatment nor mental health treatment during the past year.
Among adults with co-occuring disorders, 34% received mental
health treatment only, 2% received specialty substance use treatment
only, and 12% received both mental health and specialty substance
use treatment during the past year. This NSDUH Report is based
on SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health, the primary
source of information on the prevalence, patterns, and consequences
of drug and alcohol use and abuse in the general U.S. civilian
non institutionalized population, age 12 and older. SAMHSA,
2004, 3pp.

- Alcohol - An Important Women's
Health Issue
-
When a woman drinks, the alcohol in her bloodstream
typically reaches a higher level than a man’s even if both
are drinking the same amount. This is because women’s bodies
generally have less water than men’s bodies. Because alcohol
mixes with body water, a given amount of alcohol is less diluted
in a woman’s body than in a man’s. Women become more
impaired by alcohol’s effects and are more susceptible
to alcohol-related organ damage. Considering that about one-third
of American women report regular alcohol consumption (1) and
2.3 percent, or 2.5 million women, meet the criteria for alcohol
dependence (2), it is clear that research to better understand
the effects of alcohol in women is critical. This issue of Alcohol
Alert summarizes some of the most practical implications for
women across the lifespan to come from that research. NIAAA,
2004, 6pp.

- Alcohol
and Minorities: An Update
-
Patterns
of alcohol use and its consequences vary widely among minority
groups. Although more research is needed, evidence suggests
that prevention and treatment efforts may b emore effective
when based on an understanding of the ethnic context of drinking
behaviors and their development. This Alcohol Alert summarizes
research on differences in alcohol use and problems, selected
determinants of drinking, and the development of targeted prevention
and treatment programs with respect to the four main minority
groups in the United States: African Americans; Hispanics; Asian
Americans and Pacific Islanders; and American Indians/Alaska
Natives. It is important to note that these categories include
hundreds of distince ethnic or racial populations which differ
markedly in cultural characteristics and drinking behavior.
Consequently, research does not support broad generalizations
about specific subpopulations, many of which have not been studied
individually. (update of Alcohol Alert #23). NIAAA, 2002,

Use and Delinquent Behaviors Among Youths: NSDUH Report
-
Alcohol
use by youths has been linked to delinquent behaviors, such
as stealing, illicit drug use, and problems in school. Research
also indicates that early drinkers are more likely than nondrinkers
to engage in delinquent behaviors. The National Survey on Drug
Use and Health (NSDUH) asks persons aged 12 or older to report
their alcohol use in their lifetime, the past year, and the
past 30 days, as well as binge drinking in the past 30 days.
NSDUH also asks youths aged 12 to 17 how often they engaged
in the following delinquent behaviors during the past year:
(a) getting into a serious fight at school or work, (b) taking
part in a fight where a group of friends fought against another
group, (c) attacking someone with the intent to seriously hurt
them, (d) stealing or trying to steal anything worth more than
$50, (e) selling illegal drugs, and (f) carrying a handgun.
This report examines alcohol use and delinquent behaviors among
youths aged 12 to 17. SAMHSA, 2005, 3pp.

Liver Disease
-
The
liver is one of the largest and most complex organs in the body.
It stores vital energy and nutrients, manufactures proteins
and enzymes necessary for good health, protects the body from
disease, and breaks down (or metabolizes) and helps remove harmful
toxins, like alcohol, from the body. Because the liver is the
chief organ responsible for metabolizing alcohol, it is especially
vulnerable to alcohol–related injury. Even as few as three
drinks at one time may have toxic effects on the liver when
combined with certain over–the–counter medications,
such as those containing acetaminophen. This issue of Alcohol
Alert examines the diagnosis and treatment of alcoholic liver
disease (ALD), a serious and potentially fatal consequence of
drinking alcohol. Another disorder, hepatitis C, also featured
here, often is found in patients with ALD. NIAAA, 2005, 6pp.

Women
appear to be more vulnerable than men to many adverse consequences
of alcohol use. Women achieve higher concentrations of alcohol

equivalent amounts of alcohol. Research also suggests that women
are more susceptible than men to alcohol-related organ damage
and to trauma resulting from traffic crashes and interpersonal
violence. This Alcohol Alert examines gender differences in
alcohol's effects and considers some factors that may place
women at risk for alcohol-related problems. NIAAA, 1999, 4pp.

Part of the "Kids Art for Peace"
poster series previously sold by the Wisconsin Clearinghouse.
This artwork was created by students in the "Kids Against
Violence Art Program" at Lincoln Elementary School, Salt
Lake School District, in Salt Lake City, Utah, under the direction
of professional artist Elaine S. Harding. The Kids Against Violence
Art Program helps children who have issues with violence to
express their hopes, fears and dreams using visual art. By learning
art skills and concepts, children are empowered to look at their
world with sensitivity and intelligence. They can envision peace
for themselves, their family, their school, their neighborhood,
their city, the country, and even our planet! WC, 1997. [18"x22"
