DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Underage drinking has numerous negative consequences. Drinking heavily is more common among rural than urban underage populations and more likely among Native Americans than other ethnic groups, with rural American Indians drinking even more than their urban counterparts. The proposed cooperative agreement, detailed in this grant application, has a primary goal of developing and enriching the capacity of the Indian Health Council (IHC) and affiliated coalitions to address the problem of underage drinking in their communities. IHC serves nine Indian reservations in rural northern San Diego County. In order to achieve this goal, this cooperative agreement draws upon the combined strengths of the Indian Health Council, Inc. (IHC), Pacific Institute for Research and Evaluation's Prevention Research Center (PRC), and The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) in La Jolla. The specific aims of this project are: 1. To evaluate and upgrade the capacity of IHC to assess the extent of underage drinking in the areas that it serves. This aim will be implemented by training IHC and coalition members in techniques of quantitative survey design and implementation and qualitative data collection, analysis and utilization in order to develop in-clinic capacity to implement brief surveys to assess the extent and nature of underage drinking on the reservations, including where and how reservation youth obtain the alcohol they consume. 2. To evaluate and strengthen the capacity of IHC to intervene to reduce underage drinking. To accomplish this IHC, PRC and TSRI staff will conduct a series of seminars, workshops and training sessions for coalition members, reservation leaders, and interested community members on techniques for environmental prevention of alcohol problems and training for IHC physicians and staff on Motivational Intervention as a brief intervention technique for intervention with youth who have emerging alcohol use and alcohol-related problems. Process evaluation will document the actions taken by the IHC, community coalitions, and reservation leadership with respect to the treatment and prevention of underage drinking in order to form a baseline prior to the intervention phase (Phase II). 3. To mobilize specific sectors of the community to partner with IHC in preparation for implementation and evaluation of preventive interventions designed to address underage drinking in this population. The cooperative agreement promises to both enrich and document the ways in which American Indians living in and around rural reservations can apply environmental prevention and brief interventions to reduce the incidence of underage drinking in their communities.

描述（由申请人提供）： 未成年人饮酒有许多负面影响。大量饮酒在农村比城市未成年人更常见，在美洲原住民中比其他族裔群体更有可能，美国农村印第安人的饮酒量甚至比城市印第安人更多。拟议的合作协议，在本赠款申请中详细说明，其主要目标是发展和丰富印度卫生理事会（IHC）和附属联盟的能力，以解决其社区未成年人饮酒的问题。IHC为圣地亚哥县北方农村的九个印第安人保留地提供服务。为了实现这一目标，该合作协议利用了印度卫生理事会公司的综合优势。(IHC)、太平洋研究和评估研究所的预防研究中心（PRC）和位于拉霍亚的斯克里普斯研究所（TSRI）。该项目的具体目标是：1。评估和提高IHC的能力，以评估其服务地区未成年人饮酒的程度。这一目标将通过培训IHC和联盟成员在定量调查设计和实施以及定性数据收集，分析和利用的技术来实现，以发展诊所内实施简短调查的能力，以评估保留地未成年人饮酒的程度和性质，包括保留地青年在哪里以及如何获得他们消费的酒精。2.评估和加强IHC的干预能力，以减少未成年人饮酒。为了实现这一目标，PRC和TSRI工作人员将为联盟成员、保留地领导人和感兴趣的社区成员举办一系列研讨会、讲习班和培训班，介绍环境预防酒精问题的技术，并为IHC医生和工作人员提供动机干预培训，作为一种简短的干预技术，用于干预有酒精使用和酒精相关问题的青年。过程评估将记录IHC、社区联盟和保留地领导层在治疗和预防未成年人饮酒方面采取的行动，以便在干预阶段（第二阶段）之前形成基线。3.动员社区的特定部门与IHC合作，准备实施和评估旨在解决这一人群中未成年人饮酒问题的预防干预措施。该合作协议承诺丰富和记录生活在农村保留地及其周围的美洲印第安人可以采用环境预防和简短干预措施的方式，以减少其社区未成年人饮酒的发生率。
