Dilemmas of Mental Health Service Delivery to Off-Reservation Indians

Bittker, Thomas E.

Anthropological Quarterly, 46, 3, 172-182, Jul 73

As a constituent of neither federally nor locally administered programs many of his health needs have been ignored. This is particularly apparent in the management of alcoholism problems.
