The American Academy of Social Work and Social Welfare has identified "Reducing and Preventing Alcohol Misuse and Its Consequences" as one of its Grand Challenges for Social Work, a program launched in 2012. This comprehensive book presents the findings of numerous social work and allied professions scholars, outlining current strategies for achieving the ambitious goals set forth in this Grand Challenge.
The chapters in this book are organized into two main sections: 'general pieces' and those that specifically focus on addressing workforce development issues related to meeting the Grand Challenge. Contributors to the book offer diverse perspectives on the issue of alcohol misuse, encompassing racial/ethnic disparities in alcohol treatment services, adolescents and emerging adults, and trauma/PTSD. Additionally, the book explores technology-based interventions for reducing alcohol misuse and its consequences, as well as various models for preparing the workforce to effectively engage in screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment (SBIRT), for individuals experiencing alcohol-related problems that are compounded by other social and behavioral health issues.
The book concludes with two insightful interviews, highlighting global initiatives, and fetal alcohol spectrum disorders. Originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Social Work Practice in the Addictions, this book serves as a valuable resource for social work practitioners, researchers, and policymakers seeking to address the complex challenges associated with alcohol misuse and its consequences.
