The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism Should Make Greater Efforts to Support Treatment Demonstration Projects.

Abstract

We have reviewed selected activities of the Department of Health and Human Services' (HHS') National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) pertaining to the treatment and rehabilitation of alcohol abusers and alcoholics. Our review was undertaken to assess the management and effectiveness of NIAAA's directly funded treatment grant program. We are making this report because our observations pertaining to HHS' involvement in treatment demonstration projects are relevant to S.755, which was introduced on March 23, 1981, to reauthorize NIAAA and refocus its activities on technical assistance, research, and demonstration efforts.
