Abstract

This article examines the relationship between alcohol use and sexual abuse for both male perpetrators and female survivors with a special emphasis on antecedent factors of substance abuse for survivors. Treatment issues for women survivors are discussed and therapeutic interventions are suggested. Finally, the use of 12-step programs in a manner which is helpful with survivors is discussed.
