Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island family history of alcohol and other drug useThere is growing concern that problematic alcohol and other drug use is becoming engendered within a section of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island (ATSI) community. This project will endeavour to determine the level of this problem by tracing the family histories of a number of ATSI people. In particular, the family histories will focus on the alcohol and other drug problems within selected families, over many generations. The paper will be used to assist the ANCD in assessing whether sufficient commitment of resources for alcohol and other drug intervention programs by Commonwealth, State and Territory governments and community organisations for ATSI people has and is occurring.
