Two hearings held on October 24, 1985, and April 29, 1986, produced testimony about two House bills on prevention and treatment of Indian juvenile alcoholism and drug abuse. These bills provide for (1) programs of instruction on alcohol and drug abuse in Indian schools in kindergarten through grade 12; (2) training about alcohol and drug abuse for school counselors and school boards serving Indian children, community health representatives, and Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) and Indian Health Service (IHS) personnel; (3) summer recreation and employment programs for Indian youth on reservations; (4) research on the number of juvenile Indians needing residential alcohol and drug treatment; and (5) comprehensive treatment in IHS facilities. Representatives Douglas Bereuter of Nebraska and Thomas Daschle of South Dakota, bill sponsors, presented background information on the extent of the problem and need for this legislation. BIA and IHS statements opposed enactment of the bills, citing funding problems, and programs or policies already in effect. Witnesses giving supportive testimony included 4 members of national and regional Indian organizations and 12 Indian high school students; the latter described drug and alcohol problems in their schools and communities. The document includes a report and 14 data tables on mortality rates and juvenile alcohol and drug abuse programs generated from data bases in the Alcohol Epidemiologic Data System. (SV)
