尽管在某些少数民族社区中"硬性毒品"的使用不成比例，而在其他少数民族社区中药物滥用的模式也很独特，但许多人抱怨说，非洲裔美国人、美洲印第安人、亚裔美国人和拉丁美洲人滥用药物的特殊问题仍然没有得到重视。此外，从未对美国少数民族滥用药物的情况进行过全面审查。针对这些关切，对药物滥用领域相对于少数民族的现状进行了评估。审查工作包括说明族裔特有的问题以及对这些问题的体制和科学反应。提出了解决不足之处的战略。
Despite the disproportionate use of “hard drugs” in certain ethnic minority communities, and the unique patterns of drug abuse in others, many have complained that there remains an absence of attention paid to the special problems of substance abuse by Afro-Americans, American Indians, Asian Americans, and Latinos. Furthermore, no comprehensive review of drug abuse by American ethnic minorities has ever been undertaken. In response to these concerns, an assessment of the current status of the drug abuse field, relative to ethnic minorities, was undertaken. The review included delineation of ethnic-specific problems and the institutional and scientific responses to those concerns. Strategies for addressing inadequacies are proposed.
